  • With the summer crowds gone, this is a magnificent place to sit and enjoy the sight and sound of the ocean. My wife and I did so given we were told whales were feeding regularly close to the shore...

  • Thought this beach may have just been hype but was really pleasantly surprised. Gorgeous long stretches of soft white sand that really is one of the cleanest beaches I've been to on the east coast, no shells, seaweed, etc. Gorgeous mansions in the backdrop and amazingly quiet during the week. $50 to park for the day but has restrooms, food, and plenty of space. We went after parking charges ended to catch the sunset.
  • This place is really beautiful, get there early to get good shaded parking, upon arrival it's $50 cash to park no apple/Samsung pay or credit card at the booth. You can rent chairs and umbrellas, there's an area to purchase food, the rest room and wash off area are closed down by 6 pm but they do have port a potties around. The waves are huge and rough, difficult to swim in, but fun to surf, paddle board and jump around in, very salty water, but clean.
  • Beautiful beach. Clean sand, no rocks, seaweed or shells. But there was no one at the booth and all I saw were permit parking only signs, so not sure about the reviews stating it’s $50 a day for parking
  • I love waters so much and I’ve never been at the beach in such a long time and Coopers Beach satisfied all of my summer getaway cravings! The location is awesome, the locals are very friendly and the staff are amazing! It doesn’t usually get really crowded during weekdays and i felt like we have the beach all to ourselves because we arrived early so we’re like the first beach goers in there. The beach is very clean with helpful lifeguards on duty and very accommodating. It’s quiet, peaceful and is definitely one of the best beaches I’ve ever been to! Highly recommended!
  • Beautiful beach. Clean no smokers of any kind. Lots of families. Clean bathrooms. Love it
