About Low Beach
Because this beach faces southeast, it can experience interesting rip currents that can be a boon for surf-casters and beachcombers. The accreted sand here is coarse and sugary and the winds are unbuffered, which means the gentle dunes here support only the most tenacious of flora. Less used than the nearby beach at Codfish Park, Low Beach is just as picturesque and often easier to access due to the ample parking area. To get here from the ‘Sconset rotary, follow Ocean Ave, which becomes Low Beach Road at a stop sign past the Land Bank marker and take a left which will bring you off the bluff and onto the beach itself.
