Grand Beach
One of OOB's quieter year-round residential beach pockets.
Updated May 2026
Where it sits
South of Bayview, north of Surfside. Anchored by the Grand Beach residential community.
Character
Year-round residential. Quieter than downtown. Real neighbors, not just summer renters.
Access
Residential streets with some public parking in summer. Best access for non-residents is via Kinney Shores and a walk north.
Best for
Full-time residents, quieter family days, and off-season beach walks.
Surf and conditions
Moderate. Bigger than Pine Point on south-wind days but generally smaller than Surfside.
Adjacent communities
Grand Beach is part of the broader Grand Beach / Kinney Shores / Ferry Beach year-round corridor. See that community page.
