Cars glide by, shimmering in the sun.
It's hot, the sun is out, it's summer. There are both municipal and private parking lots along Hampton's main beach. They are prime places to park if you're not spending the night at beachside lodgings, but bring along plenty of quarters for the parking meters. They're closely watched, and you'll want to avoid ticket hassles. With upwards of 200,000 people flocking to Hampton Beach each summer weekend, consider leaving your car as far behind as possible.
