At a glance
Overview
Kettle Cove is a small town-managed cove beach in Cape Elizabeth, tucked next to Crescent Beach State Park on the Casco Bay shoreline. Parking is limited and fills quickly on warm summer afternoons. The water is cold Atlantic year-round; most visitors wade, walk the shore, and picnic more than full-on swim.
