A hidden gem! Put this on your must do list! Simply one of the best, most secluded beaches around. Located at the southern tip of Plum Island. Entrance is through the Parker River Wildlife Refuge, but it is separate from the Refuge and you do not have to pay. Just tell the gate attendant that you’re visiting Sandy Point only and follow the road to the very end. Parking is extremely limited so either go early or be patient until a spot becomes available. Two parking lots are available.
