Beach Advisory Page

Please refer to this calendar to plan your visit to Popham Beach State Park. Dates listing a Beach Advisory have a high tide during peak hours resulting in very little beach space during busy times. Click on those dates for more information.

A DYNAMIC AND CHANGING LANDSCAPE - Sand movement and beach dynamics have had a dramatic effect on Popham Beach, causing extreme shoreline change and dune erosion. This is most noticeable around high tide (2 hours before and 2 hours after high tide). During these hours there is much less beach than there once was.
