How can I get to Hampton Beach from Boston Airport

Submitted by petrik3003 t3_122iuv5 in newhampshire

Hi everyone, coming to NH this summer for work and travel program.

Will fly from Poland or Turkey, haven’t bought my flight tickets yet.

The question is, how can I get to Hampton Beach from airport of Boston, or maybe from JFK in New York?

I mean, I can’t find a single bus straight to Hampton Beach on the internet but maybe there is an option?

Welcome to the US where public transport outside major cities is either terrible or non-existent, unfortunately.

There are some car services in the area that sometimes share their rates on local Facebook groups. I think it’s usually about $150 from Logan to the seacoast area but may be worth it after a long flight with a lot of luggage. CJ Trailways bus as the others mentioned is probably your best option and they are really great.

Sorry, there is no convenient public transportation outside of metropolitan areas in the U.S. You can take a C&J bus to Portsmouth (from NYC or Boston) and from Portsmouth, it’s a 30-minute drive to Hampton Beach. I recommend getting an Uber or asking someone in advance because a cab will probably cost you another $100. Taxi rates are ridiculous on the seacoast precisely due to the lack of public transportation.

You're better off renting a car and driving from Boston

You’re welcome. As an option, make some friends online and arrange for someone to pick you up from the bus station. Also, just to warn you, housing is another issue on the seacoast, especially since covid. I hope you have made arrangements or are working on that now. It will be very hard and very expensive to find that on the spot. Anyway, best of luck and I hope you enjoy your summer!

C & J is the best bet. They run hourly and pick up at each terminal at Boston's Logan airport. Perhaps the employer could pick you up in Seabrook. If not, an Uber would be best.

In the event you land in NY, a bus to Boston and then C&J to Seabrook, NH.

Enjoy your summer and enjoy Hampton Beach!

Many employers are helping summer workers with things like this too, such as housing. C&J is indeed your best bet. Uber/Lyft from Portsmouth or Seabrook. Have a safe trip and a great summer!

I’d almost rather do it this way, c&j is good, but navigating the terminals and then getting an Uber…a lot of folks have small business’s posted on the local Facebook groups for rides to/from Logan to the seabrook/Hampton area. Less chances to get stranded

Unless you're looking for a shit show of IQ's matching our summer temperatures you're better off going to one of many great locations north of Hampton Beach.

May want to check timing of your flight if it arrives late. Their last bus leaves Logan at 11pm I think and have had some issues with late flights and waiting for luggage in baggage claim . When you arrive go outside of baggage claim and look for the signage think it says shuttle bus or scheduled busses

I also have used Ubers to get to the coast but it’ll be $$100+ vs 30sh

Hi, you take the bus from Boston to Newburyport, and then a Lyft or Uber to Hampton Beach.

Commuter rail from north station to Newburyport. $10. Uber in from there probably $20.

From ChatGPT…

To take public transportation from Boston Logan Airport to Hampton Beach, you can follow these steps:

Take the free Massport Shuttle Bus from the airport to the MBTA Blue Line Subway Station. Follow the signs for the "MBTA Subway" or "Airport Subway Station." Take the MBTA Blue Line Subway from the airport station to the Bowdoin station. Transfer to the MBTA Orange Line Subway at the Bowdoin station, and take the Orange Line to North Station. At North Station, transfer to the Newburyport/Rockport Commuter Rail Line and take the train to Newburyport. At Newburyport, transfer to the C&J Bus Lines bus service to Hampton Beach. You can check the schedules and fares for the MBTA and C&J Bus Lines online to plan your trip in advance. It's also a good idea to have cash or a credit/debit card to purchase tickets for the subway and bus rides.

I do a little driving for Uber, and if I'm in that area, regularly pick up people at the C&J bus stop in Seabrook.
Note, there's also a C&J bus from NYC that comes to the seacoast (leaves NYC in Port Authority), including I believe a stop in Seabrook. Obviously there's the extra hassle getting from JFK to Port Authority, but wanted to point that out too.
