Just visited (Meh-SHUT) beach for the first time with my family. While it was incredibly windy, ultimately cutting our visit shorter than anticipated, we found the facilities to be great. As a Dad I loved not having to worry about giant crashing waves, the sand (I assume they truck in) is nice and ... sandy... not rocky or course. The beach is longer than I thought it would be with plenty of room to spread out, but it's not as wide/deep as the South Shore beaches. The little "gift shop" is nice and we all bought sweatshirts; and the snack bar is great. Lots of options for the kids and adults alike. They were playing fun top 40 music and everyone was super friendly. I really appreciated the number of lifeguards on duty as well. With barely any waves it's a much safer beach for kiddos anyway, but there were stationed lifeguard towers every 100 feet or so... all total, making for a great place to bring the kids. We'll definitely be going back in the future, and in the meantime we'll rep Meschutt Beach with our new merch.

We visited during COVID. People did an OK job of keeping distance and masking around the restroom/snack areas. This is a nice little beach, not big on waves but not totally calm either. Pretty clean, and a giant playground right next door. This season, non-residents are not allowed to park there. We arrived early and easily found a spot by the marina around the corner.

A great family beach for families with children 0-10. I will say wear beach shoes because as it all inland beaches on the island the shores have rocks!!! The water depth is NOT deep which makes it perfect for young children. You need a Suffolk County Green key to reduce the weekend parking fee from $20 per car to $9. There is a playground area for children with things to clime on and swing. If you dont bring your own food the food is good and reasonable.There are plenty of non-fired options. Drinks are very reasonable and ice cold beers (including IPA's can be had for as low as $5) Check out there website for the nights live bands play. It is definitely worth the 20 if you have young children who would like to have a large area of safe shallow water ... and clean bathrooms! It opens at 10 and has limited parking so go early. The day will pass quickly!
