Seaside State Park
Waterford
Seaside State Park is a rare year-round dog-friendly beach where leashed pups can roam while you explore the crumbling ruins of an abandoned sanatorium. The shoreline is small and seaweed-heavy, but the history and sunset views more than make up for it.
Leashed dogs welcome
Scenic waterfront walks
Abandoned sanatorium ruins
Peaceful small beach
Tips
🏚️"the history of the property alone is worth every visit"
🐕leashed dogs welcome all year, unlike most CT beaches
🌅sunset photos here are gorgeous
