Jamestown Beach

Had a great time at jamestown beach with my 3 year old son. I read online that it was a small, quiet beach good for families so we decided to give it a try. And it was great! Exactly what I was looking for. It wasn’t busy at all, there was parking right up the hill, and not a ton of people. In fact there weren’t many people at all. We had a blast in the water and on the sand. The one thing i didn’t like was that the sand was pretty coarse, but my son didn’t see to care to much and had a perfect time playing. I would recommend this for anyone who doesn’t like crowds but wants to enjoy some quiet beach time.

Nice well and fairly clean beach (for lower James standards anyway). It is up the river far enough that it is not salty at all. It is very shallow for many yards out so it is a very safe place to take the kids to. There are plenty of free grills and shaded picnic tables. The only restrooms are porta potties. The parking is free.
