Maine has over 5,000 miles of pristine coastline along the Atlantic Ocean, so it’s saying something when Kennebunk beaches are counted among the state’s best. Family-friendly Gooch's Beach is a wide, soft-sand beach that provides a perfect daylong getaway with the kids.

Visitors can stroll down the long shoreline hunting for sand dollars and building sand castles; splash, play, and skim board the surf or hit the gentle waters to swim or kayak. The beach is lifeguard protected and has porta potty facilities and paid parking.
