BEACHES
       
The Inn at Stripers Grille is surrounded by beaches, both North and South. All you have to do is decide which one you like the best. Good Luck, you're going to need it! They all are relatively close by to the Inn.
 
  Salisbury State Reservation This beautiful barrier beach is a wonderful place for walking, swimming, fishing and bird watching. This beach offers a Snack Bar, Bathrooms and Showers. During the winter (at low tide) you will see lots of seals sunning themselves on Badger Rocks, a few yards off shore in the Merrimack.
 
  Salisbury Beach Off Rt. 1A in Salisbury. Not only is their great swimming, but there is the added attraction of penny arcades, miniature golf and pizza shacks.
 
  Sandy Point State Reservation On the Southern tip of Plum Island, it is a bit of a drive, but well worth the trip. Located on Ipswich Bay, the broad sandy beach is excellent for swimming.
       
  Hampton Beach Route 1A , Hampton, New Hampshire. This is the place for teens. With a mile long, one way strip, with shops and eateries, this is the place to girl, or boy, watch. Which ever the case may be.
       
  Seabrook/ Salisbury
"The Line"
As the name implies, this beach is on the line of Salisbury, Massachusetts and Seabrook, New Hampshire. Walk off the beach and eat at the famous Browns, in the rough, restaurant. Enjoy Lobster and Steamers in a very casual setting.
       
  Cranes Beach Off Routes 1A and 133 in Ipswich, Massachusetts. The five miles of white, sandy beach is considered by many to have the best sand in the Massachusetts North Shore. Bath houses and snack bars are located at the the entrance. Many times at low tide there are tidal pools that become nice and warm, and are great for the little ones, and the not so little ones to sit and play!
