Itinerary

Beach
Day

Sun, sand, and not much else.

Start at Reach Beach if you're up early — it faces east and catches the morning light. Mid-morning, drive to Causeway Beach for a quick swim and easy access. Save Sand Beach for the afternoon and sunset — bring a towel, a book, and nothing else. If you want to break it up, stop at Stonington Harbor for lunch between beaches — tap to see your options. Or skip the sand and get out on the water — tap to see your options.

Sunny, warm day. Half to full day. All ages.
