One of the main touristic beaches in Chatham and an unmissable spot for anyone in the town or local area, Chatham Lighthouse Beach is named after the iconic Chatham Lighthouse found right by it. The lighthouse is still operational and used by the Coast Guard for navigational and safety purposes. It's usually closed, but does open up to public visits in the summer months and entry is totally free, so it can be a nice little attraction to check out during a day at this Chatham beach. The sands of the beach are soft and welcoming, and it’s very conveniently located near the amenities and eateries of the town center.
