Nahant Beach Reservation, Protected coastal reservation in Nahant, United States.
The 67-acre reservation features a 7,000-foot-long beach along the Atlantic Ocean with athletic fields and boat ramps for public access.
In the early 1900s, the Metropolitan District Commission acquired private shoreline properties and removed structures, including Hotel Nahant, to create public beach access.
The reservation functions as part of the Metropolitan Park System of Greater Boston, providing recreational spaces for community gatherings and outdoor activities.
Parking fees from May to October are $10 for Massachusetts residents and $40 for non-residents, with mobile payments accepted through the YODEL app.
The beach serves as the sole connection between Big Nahant, Little Nahant, and the mainland, making it essential infrastructure for emergency services.
