Celebrated as one of the best family destinations in Maine, the Wells Beach area is home to four separate beaches: Moody Beach, Crescent Beach, Wells Beach, and Drake's Island Beach, all of which boast soft white sand and incredible views of the Atlantic Ocean.

Moody Beach is the most popular spot for adventure seekers since it has plenty of access points for boats and kayaks. Surfers gravitate toward Drake's Island Beach because of the large waves, while Wells Beach attracts anglers because of its long jetty. At Wells Harbor, visitors can enjoy scenic sailing trips, free summer concerts, and other family-friendly events. The tourist towns of Ogunquit and Kennebunkport are just a short drive away from Wells Beach.
