Lake Day Atlas

Mount Sunapee rises above the southern end of this New Hampshire lake. The public beach in Newbury is a useful starting point for a swim, while Sunapee Harbor offers a different view from the western shore.

On the water

Plan your lake day

Take a picnic to the state park beach and leave the afternoon open for a drive to the harbor. For a longer day, split your group’s time between the waterfront and a mountain trail.

Field notes

Before you go

Navigate to Beach Access Road for the waterfront. The ski area and beach share the Mount Sunapee name but have separate entrances.
