Ferry Beach is a lovely riverfront Beach along Maine's Scarborough River Channel, offering calm tide conditions that make it an excellent swimming spot choice for families with young children. The beach serves as a nesting site for hermit crabs, protected from strong Atlantic Ocean waves by a jetty separating it from the open ocean. Amenities at the beach include restrooms and showers with changing tables, though visitors should note that no concession stands are offered and no lifeguards are present on duty. The beach's 100-acre surrounding park is home to a variety of hiking trails and a beautiful grove of tupelo trees, which serves as a vantage point providing striking views of the surrounding waterfront area. Dogs are permitted on the beach between November and March.
