Gooseberry Beach is an absolute must-visit! The water is calm and crystal clear, making it perfect for swimming and relaxing. The beach is well-kept, family-friendly, and has a peaceful vibe that makes it easy to spend the whole day here. Whether you’re lounging on the sand, taking a dip, or just enjoying the beautiful views, it’s the perfect spot for a getaway. Definitely one of the best beaches to visit!

Great little Beach, less seaweedy than the others. Parking is good

★★★★☆ 4.0 Jennifer Carbone · Oct 2016

I have only visited this beach once and on the day that I was there the water was thick with seaweed and for awhile jelly fish. I feel like this is not a consistent problem, but for the few days in the area we chose a different beach with less seaweed. On the upside there was plenty of parking, bathroom/changing facilities and a snack bar.

Technically a private beach, but for only 25$ you and your carload gets into the beach, big enough to be enjoyable, lots of dry sand to set up umbrellas and relax, waves aren't too big but that makes this a great place to play in the ocean, and when the tide goes out you can even walk out to the rocks 😁, and their snack bar even has vegetation options for food, provided you order early enough and they don't run out, but even the regular meaty stuff is cooked amazingly, and not overpriced for a beach snack bar

Hidden little treasure! Great little beach with calm waves & different vibe with rocks all around. There are rafts you can swim out to and jump off of. There is a little food shack in case you get hungry.
