First Encounter Beach is a quiet bay beach. The gentle tides make it perfect and safe for kids. Sunsets are a daily gathering - bring your beach chair!

For 20+ years, we have experienced the best sunsets at First Encounter Beach! Low tide is the perfect time to walk out through warm wading pools, with grassy little islands, and gather up your shells and ocean findings.
