Over the coming year, The Trustees will be phasing out Crane Beach Parking Permits and moving to a system of admissions discounts based on Membership level. The new approach should improve the visitor experience and make tickets to Crane Beach a little more available. Current Permits are not affected by this change. We will honor those Permits through their expiration date. We also are offering Members whose Permits expire before this year’s summer beach season ends—that is, before Labor Day—an opportunity to renew their Crane Beach Permit one final time. Those Members must renew before May 1, 2023, and their new Permits will expire no later than April 30, 2024. Admissions discounts, based on Membership level, will take effect after any Member’s current Crane Beach Permit expires. The new pricing takes effect this May for any Member who visits the Beach without a Permit. By May 2024, all current Permits will have expired, and the new, tiered-discount structure will be in effect for all Members.
