The Beach Times
Our Top 5 Beaches
Posted by Kinlin Grover | Monday, July 2, 2018
As hard as we try, there is never enough time to see all of Cape Cod's beaches in one vacation week. So aside from staying multiple weeks, we have compiled a list of the top five beaches across Cape Cod, to make the decision slighty easier. These are the choice beach locations as voted by our fans. There are so many others to spend glorious sun hours at, but start with these for now, and plan your next vacation accordingly.
1. Race Point Beach is a popular spot among locals and visitors alike. Off of Race Point Road in Provincetown, this beach offers a scenic break from the bike path that runs through it and the occasional view of seals and dolphins. Part of the national seashore, Race Point Beach offers miles of soft sand for walking and relaxing.
2. Mayflower Beach: Located on the Cape Cod Bay, this greatly popular beach keeps people of all ages coming back time and time again. Offering a spacious amount of room to read and relax or play in the low tide, this age friendly location is a fan favorite in Dennis.
3. With family friendly sand and snack bars, Old Silver Beach in Falmouth is the perfect place to spend a sunny afternoon. The Italian ice cart and spectacular sunsets this beach has create a fun and relaxing atmosphere for everyone who visits. Locals have been coming to this beach for years and visitors can’t wait to return.
4. Chatham Lighthouse Beach, Fondly regarded as Lighthouse Beach by Cape Cod residents, is known for a large seal population and strong currents great for surfing or viewing. A fan favorite, this beach has a great boardwalk that offers seating and a scenic escape to sit back and relax. This well groomed beach is a great spot to visit with family and friends.
5. Marconi Beach in Wellfleet is another national seashore favorite. Whether you and your family have been exploring the town of Wellfleet or just enjoying a sunny day, this beach is great to spend some time at. With plenty of space and located just under massive sand dune cliffs, this beach offers privacy and a great place to disconnect from the world and enjoy the summer sun.
