Dartmouth's shoreline runs from Padanaram Harbor around Smith Neck and Round Hill to the state park at Demarest Lloyd and the Slocum River. Some beaches are town-run with resident stickers, some belong to associations, and one is a state park with its own fee. Each listing says which, and the Beaches & Boating section covers tides, stickers and ramps.
