Not far from Steamboat Wharf, this beach is very aptly-named. It's the perfect spot for kids, so if you're heading to Nantucket as a family and want to find a great spot for the little ones to do some paddling in the water, Children's Beach should be your first port of call. Lots of family-friendly activities are also organized here, along with live entertainment. The waters are protected due to the harbor, resulting in almost no waves whatsoever and very safe conditions overall.
