Seaside Park
(781) 639-0806
Located on Atlantic Avenue, across from the Marblehead Police Station, this nearly 34-acre park offers a variety of athletic facilities and wooded trails that extend all the way to the water. On the Atlantic Avenue side, the park features a large open field, a small wood-chip playground, a basketball court, a summer street hockey rink, lighted tennis courts and a baseball diamond with a classic, small-town grandstand.
The wooded section at the back of the park is crisscrossed with walking trails, that include a series of exercise equipment built in 1982. The main path leads to a small rocky beach, called Devereaux Beach.
