Along the Atlantic coast of the United States, you will find some of the most exquisite beach locations. Families find them to be great summer vacation locations. Many have confectionery stores, arcades and amusement parks on their boardwalks. Others are more laid back; if you want a more sedate coastal vacation, To be honest, I do not believe you can make a poor choice. Here is a list of 15 of the best east coast beaches, though, if you would want some assistance in choosing.
1. Old Orchard Beach, Maine
Over 170 years have seen visitors to Old Orchard Beach welcome their vacation time. What draws them back again? seven miles of shore, first of all. Include the stores and eateries on Old Orchard Beach Pier. Finish it with the arcade known as Palace Playland. Think twice if you believe Old Orchard Beach is only for young people. Adults without children can beach by day and then enjoy the bustling gastronomic scene of Portland at night as it's only a ½ hour trip into the city.
2. Martha's Vineyard Massachusetts
indeed. Although getting to Martha's Vineyard (same effort for Nantucket) is a little trouble, it is well worth it. Though I have always loved Cape Cod, I'm happy I at last got myself off the peninsula to discover why everyone talks about MV.
My first view of Edgartown, the famous whaling port of the island, made me giddy.
And then there are the beaches. See the renowned pink cliffs at Gay Head Beach in Aquinnah. Alternatively, if you have littles, let them splash about in the gentle waves off Menemsha Public Beach.
3. Westerly Rhode Island
If your family wants to engage in more than sun and surf, Westerly is a fantastic coastal town. Though you cannot afford the accommodation fee, explore the Watch Hill neighborhood, which features a lovely lighthouse and the big Ocean House resort hotel. Alternatively spend a day in the adjacent Mystic (CT) Seaport and Museum.
4. The Hamptons, New York
Should a young adult member of your family be a fan of MTV's "Summer House, Visit the seaside communities on Long Island's South Fork to find the scene for the episode.
Visit private beaches at multi-million dollar residences. Shop the lovely stores on Main Street in Southampton and be ready for bougie local restaurant celebrity sightings.
5. Sandy Hook in New Jersey
Why did Sandy Hook appeal to me? From my house, this is the closest beach in Jersey Shore. And, if you reside in New York City, you may reach the beach by ½ hour ferry. Run by the federal government, Sandy Hook provides surf, throngs, and a metropolitan skyline vista.
There are hardly any concessions. Before you enter the park, pack your supplies or stock your cooler at a WaWa on NJ Route 36. Leave home. Bring the family bicycles as well. Sandy Hook boasts a multi-use 8.7 mile length.

6. Asbury Park, New Jersey
Ah, the coast of Jersey. When the vibe for sand and surf strikes, I'm lucky to reside close to several of New Jersey's seaside communities. I visit Asbury Park when I want a classic beach experience. The town is seeing a rebirth following a protracted period of decline. There are elegant restaurants with views of the ocean. And one of the several freshly rebuilt historic resort hotels can have you booked a room.
7. Rehoboth Delaware
Though little, Delaware is mighty, particularly with regard to beaches. You can visit Rehoboth, the granddaddy of all or Dewey, Bethany, Fenwick Island. Originally founded as a Methodist summer camp in 1873, Rehoboth, New Jersey, like Ocean Grove was
One way in, one way out loops define access to the settlement. One can find traffic to be inconvenient. Remain at one of the oceanfront hotels or search for a house rental close to the beach, boardwalk and activities.
8. Ocean City Maryland
First priorities first. There exist Ocean City, Maryland and Ocean City, New Jersey. The town of Jersey is tame. Residents of South Jersey and Philadelphia find it really appealing. Families spending a week at the beach travel to Maryland Ocean City.
Apart from the beach and sea, Ocean City boasts among the best ranked boardwalks in the US. That implies salt water taffy, arcade games and rides, rides, rides! Add well-known Maryland crab cakes and a great time guarantee.
9. Virginia Beach
Returning from your summer vacation with a "Virginia is for Lovers" t-shirt was a rite of passage when I was a child. Of course, the term lovers represented with a heart, hence the shirt complied with school dress requirements.
Though Virginia Beach is still a great family beach on the east coast, it was looooong ago. There is a three-mile boardwalk to explore and the coastal beaches are exactly as expected—wide and magnificent. Every day stroll to the beach from one of the resort hotels on Atlantic Avenue.
