Although there is much to do here, I think the admission is much too high, especially when all CT state parks and beaches are now free of charge. The price is too steep for families, especially those on a budget. Even walk-ins need to pay admission! Most beaches stop charging after a certain hour when you can enjoy a less crowded beach, but not here. Compare these prices to a much more enticing and beautiful beach like Misquamicut where the cost is only $7 for residents and $14 for out of staters. I'd choose Misquamicut over Ocean Beach any day despite the longer drive.
That's completely correct in a nutshell. However, being the Finest Beach in the New London County area, make that any shoreline county in Connecticut, it is all certainly well Worth It! Come and enjoy New England's Best right in your own Backyard!!!
Thanks for all the help in answering Laura's question! Yes, Laura, the season pass includes parking and admission for everyone in the car all summer as long as space is available. There can be capacity issues on sunny weekends especially mid summer. It also includes all the nightly entertainment, fireworks, etc. If you use concessions, restaurant, attractions etc there are separate charges. The kiddie spray park is always free for kids under 8. If you want to get a pass, just come in, pay the one day parking rate, and bring that single day receipt only to our sales window and we'll credit you toward your pass. The window is open daily from 11-4:00, and until 7:00 on Mondays. We hope to see you soon!
A season pass is only for normal admission & parking. Season pass is $120 for non-residents $85 for New London residents $30 for seniors (over 62). You do have to show proof of residence and senior eligibility. Those prices are for 1 car as the pass is linked to your registration. If you want you can pay another $40 To transfer the pass between cars. It sounds like a lot but it pays for itself in about 8-9 Visits.
