First - I wouldn't go here with little kids. The waves are big and powerful here - which is why my son likes it. If you're planning on being in the water, I would suggest strong swimmers go - even if they are not planning on going out far. The facilities are well-maintained and clean. Parking is $20/day, but is good for this beach only (at other Cape beaches, if they are part of the Cape Cod National Seashore, you can buy admission to one and then choose to go to another without paying again so long as you go the same day). The beach itself is sandy, not rocky, so walking barefoot is comfortable. It seems to be crowded along the shoreline, so walking along the shore for any distance is no easy feat - especially in the COVID climate we are now experiencing.

We spent a lot of time walking the beach looking for shells. The sand is very soft and the beach is very clean. We saw quite a few seals swim by.

Nice beach, pretty crowded but big enough that we were spread out. Waves were a little rough but my husband and daughter liked swimming. Saw quite a few seals and even saw a shark jump up, which was very exciting. Probably wouldn’t bring toddlers, it’s more of an older kid beach. Also had an ice cream truck out front with really good ice cream, and even vegan ice cream for my daughter. …
