At Odiorne Point State Park picnickers can enjoy sweeping views of the ocean and rocky shore, and explorers can uncover evidence of past military occupation. An extensive network of trails wind through the dense vegetation and traverse the park. The Seacoast Science Center, which is located in the park, has exhibits relating to the natural and human history of Odiorne and the seacoast area (separate fee). The Seacoast Science Center will be providing free programming this summer for parks guests.

There are 2 parking lots for this park. It's $4/ person to park. That was $24 for our family of 6. I ASSUMED, being this is the same state park, that we would be able to go to the other lot and show them my receipt and park for free.... the guy at the first place we stopped said that is not the case. 😲 he said we'd have to pay again if we went to the other lot. How stupid! The beach is masses of sea weed, the boat launch is so stinky and is like..... rotting mud. I was looking for the tide pools to find ocean critters. The 2 beaches & parking lots do connect if you walk along the shore but it's not a swimming area as the seaweed is so thick. We had a nice hot walk around the beach, to finally arrive and find like 50 kids in the tide pools which probably scared off every creature that would have been there. 😆 live & learn. Make sure you park at the science center lot of your looking for the tide pools!
