·

Wingaersheek is the most popular beach in Gloucester -- it fills completely by 10 AM on summer Saturdays. Arrive at 9 AM or earlier.

·

Non-residents pay $30/car in peak summer. A Gloucester resident season pass saves money quickly if you plan multiple visits.

·

Call (978) 281-9785 before driving -- the city posts lot-full status when capacity is reached.

·

Annisquam is 5 min away and has street parking for exploring the village -- a good alternative if the beach lots are full.
