Drakes Island Beach, located just north of the entrance to Wells Harbor, is a great place to spend the day. Visitors to the beach enjoy a variety of recreational water activities including swimming, fishing, and wave sports. It's also a nice place to just relax and sunbathe on the sand. There is paid parking near the beach and restrooms nearby. Lifeguards are on duty from 9am-5pm. During the summer, dogs are only permitted on the beach after 6pm (with the exception of service animals).

Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is still essential. Only go to the beach if you are able to keep 6 feet or 2 meters away from others. Follow the instructions provided by your local health authorities. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter our efforts to curb the virus’s spread.
