During the summer there are lifeguards on duty from about 12 to 4 PM. The beach is very clean and well-kept. It's never too busy and there's always plenty of parking. Most people don't know about this place. It's actually open to the public. You do not need to be a Hingham resident to visit here. Not only that but it's actually free. Not only is the beach pristine and beautiful, the water idyllic blue and fresh and clean, but there is a green right next to the beach and it is vast and beautiful with lots of trees and picnic tables. There's lots of places to sit. There's also a snack bar with amazing food. It has lobster rolls and salads and amazing fries. This place is totally a gem. On the other side of the beach there is a beautiful knoll with lots of trees. I recommend this place for kids, for picnic Sundays, for families, anybody can come here. It is open and free to all. A wonderful place to be. Dogs are welcome here on the beach from Labor Day to memorial day. And then from Memorial Day to Labor Day they need to be on leash next to you and they're really not supposed to be on the beach when there are a lot of people around.

Nantasket Beach-- countless summers spent here during my childhood. I remember when my grandmother…read morewould come here to see the live band on Sundays and line dance under the bandstand. There was a food shack at the pavilion and we would get fried clams after swimming in the water with my boogie board. Then my mom would take me to the playground, and end the day with some mini golf, a carousel ride, and some ice cream. I came here yesterday for the first time in a while, and the renovations are very prevalent. Mini golf is gone, as well as the arcade and fascination. Many new restaurants, none of the ones I remember. Lots of new housing being built. Same sand, same ocean. I see a lot of hopeful developments that will energize this place, but I miss the nostalgia it had when I was a kid. We came here yesterday, May 17th, which has been the nicest day of the year so far. I didn't think it would be this crowded. Never in my almost 30 years of coming here have I seen the beach this crowded. Wow. We all had the same idea. And, it was free parking since it was before the "official" season. So it was a while of circling around and around for a spot. But then we found one. The sand is nice, no rocks. Water is warm. Good for families, or groups of friends, or solo beachgoers. Food nearby, not too many gift shops anymore, but hopefully more to come. A beachfront resort if you want a getaway. No more live music, I hope it comes back. Still have bathhouses to use, they look the same as when I was a kid. One of the best beaches in the South Shore.

Nantasket Beach is the beach I go to for convenience. It's…read morelocated in Hull & for me, I personally like to set up towards the Cumberland Farms & park in one of the two open lots there because this side of the beach is less rocky & sand is better! I know some people like to stick to the side by the bathrooms & showers but whenever it's high tide, there's no where to set up & many times, people end up pulling their stuff to the sidewalk lol. There's a couple different food options available too, some are takeout quick eats like hotdogs etc or you can also do sit down dining. There's parking lot by the bathrooms is cheaper; ~$15 cash for weekdays & $20 cash for the side of the beach I like. There's also meter parking spots scattered! Water is WARM, which is much different from the beaches up north (Gloucester, Ipswich), so very swimmable & for the most part, pretty clean. There's some waves here and there, which I can see being great for kids to come w: their boogie boards! Overall, I always end up coming back to this beach at least once or twice each summer haha. Not too shabby & parking prices aren't bad.

Be careful when putting the address into your navigation, especially Waze users, as it took us to the totally wrong location at first. Once you arrive, however, parking is pretty straightforward. It costs $10/car. The staff at the hut where you pay for parking was super helpful in letting us know what route would best suit our time constraints. We were even given a map! The trails were pretty clear, some maybe weren't as clearly defined as they could've been. Note for hikers: this does feel like more a stroll in the park as opposed to a true hike. Some hidden paths did feel like one, however, so don't be afraid to venture off what seems to be the most defined routes. We loved the views of the Boston skyline, harbour, and Hull, MA. This place is definitely worth a visit. I'm looking forward to coming back in autumn to see some good foliage!

Great place to run or walk or bike. On weekends, check to see if any race is going on, because you could potentially get trampled by bicycles or runners.

This is lazy and disrespectful. But I do go in there often.

His instructor (Ronnie Lees) worked with him and got him up on the board, cruising to the beach the first hour. By the end of lesson #5, he was paddling out on his own, starting out on his own (no push), accomplishing simple turns and routinely surfing all the way to the beach. Being a Minnesota kid, this was a truly unique experience. Our only dilemma...next year do we sign him up for another five hour package, or a full camp? Needless to say, he wants to do both.
