Cape Cod Beach Guide

Cape Cod is a quintessential New England summer retreat known for its quaint villages, seafood shacks, lighthouses, ponds, and bay and ocean side beaches. The Cape Cod National Seashore offers 40 miles of unspoiled sandy beach, marshes, ponds, and uplands supporting diverse species. It’s a haven for nature lovers, offering breathtaking hikes and wildlife viewing.

The beaches of Cape Cod are divided into four distinct areas: the Upper Cape, Mid Cape, Lower Cape, and Outer Cape, each offering its unique landscapes and attractions. In the Upper Cape, you’ll find Falmouth’s warm, gentle waters ideal for families, while the Mid Cape is home to the popular Craigville Beach, known for its lively atmosphere and youthful vibe.
