Finn Beach Summer 2023

Updated 6/5/23

For the Summer 2023 season parking passes will go on sale in the Town Clerk’s Office on June 1st.  Please make sure you read everything before making your parking pass purchase.

Finn Beach is a Voluntown Town Beach and is open from June 15 to September 15. Prior to June 15 and after September 15, the beach is the property of Connecticut DEEP.

People who purchase passes must understand that it cannot be guaranteed that there will be space in the parking lot available when you arrive, and the parking lot will close when the parking lot is full. For safety reasons, vehicles will not be allowed to wait by the gate for the parking lot to open. We cannot guarantee that the status of the parking lot will be posted publicly. Please plan accordingly.

Finn Beach is a public beach and is open to anyone regardless of whether or not they reside in Voluntown.

Please make sure you have a parking permit for the lot, as there is NO PARKING ALLOWED ON THE STREET. Those who park on the street will get towed.

Parking lot permits are transferable from car to car.

Parking lot permits can be picked up at the Town Hall in the Town Clerk Office.  Please be ready to show proof of residency if you plan on purchasing the resident pass.  Checks are to be made out to ‘Town of Voluntown’. The Town Hall is not open on Friday, so please plan accordingly! Parking permits will be available at the Voluntown Public Library on Fridays and Saturdays only. Please have exact change or check when purchasing a pass at the library.

Parking lot security will be used again this year. The parking lot will be open daily from June 15- September 15, 10:00AM- 6:00PM.

To offset the cost of lot security the fees for parking passes are as follows:

Voluntown Residents: $25 for the season (includes 2 guest day passes)
Non-Residents: $75 for the season
Day permits: $15 per day for resident, $30 for non-nonresident.

PERMITS WILL NOT BE SOLD AT THE BEACH!!!!
