Welcome to the HBAC Website!

Now that you’ve found us, we hope you’ll check back for updates on a regular basis. The Hampton Beach Area Commission (HBAC) represents and advocates for the area outlined on this map. We continue to work on our requirement to update and expand the
Hampton Beach master plan which is an appendix to the town of
Hampton Master Plan.

Our most recent achievement is the completion of the Environmental and Coastal Resilient component, and we will now work closely with the town Resilience Coordinator to implement the priorities established in that plan. The HBAC will also continue to work with the residents, businesspeople, the Chamber of Commerce and other stakeholders to support the economic viability of Hampton Beach.

Focusing on the preserving and maintaining the natural elements of Hampton Beach that make it one of the most beautiful beaches on the East Coast as well as the businesses and attractions that continue to make it a destination for beachgoers from near and far is the primary focus of the HBAC.

We also continue to work with New Hampshire’s Department of Transportation as they move forward with the replacement of the Seabrook/Hampton River bridge and the planned improvements to Route 1A which is currently in the engineering phase. The HBAC will also continue its important connection to NH State Parks, the Hampton Village District and the town of Hampton.
