Of the 3 big beaches in Middletown, this is by far the most relaxed. The water is calm, so if you are looking for tons of waves for surfing or boogie boarding, this isn’t the beach for you. However, it’s relaxed atmosphere is GREAT for families with young children. The Red Tide is almost non existent on 3rd beach, which puts this beach over the top as my favorite. Soft sand, calm water and a family vibe. This is the best beach in Middletown if you want a nice calm beach experience! Also, if you have a boat, canoe, etc., there is a ramp here for entrance into the water!

I didn’t want to give the beach a terrible rating because it really is a quite beautiful place. The winding road getting there as well as the few vendors selling drinks and iceys make it a decent spot to toss up an umbrella, and enjoy the beach. Parking was pretty brutal to find for me and mine, but that’s because we got there later than we should have. Speaking to the officer that was directing traffic, he said that you should aim to get there no later than 10 am. Unfortunately, it was low tide and the beach and water were absolutely COVERED in red seaweed which totally ruined our planned waterworks :(I haven’t seen any other reviews that confirm this as well, so I’m guessing that this is a weird seasonal fluke. Would definitely go back, but only if I have strong confirmation of NOSEAWEED.

I love third beach. It is quiet and and great place to escape and go for a walk. A true Middletown treasure!
