coast guard beach

Cape Cod这边众多的海滩之一 相对是这里比较知名的一个 之前看攻略挺多人推荐要来这个海滩 不过真正来了之后 感觉也就是一般般 也许是天气的缘故 当天是阴天 海水并不漂亮 另外沙子也不算细 风很大 也就是7月份 却觉的挺冷的 更是不敢下水玩 Cape Cod的海果然是这样 能下去的时间非常有限 不明白为什么这里这么知名 总体一般般

One of our favorite places on Cape Cod! We've only been a couple of times, but will go back multiple times in the near future. Clean beach, miles to just walk or you could swim if you're brave enough (very cold water). We've been both in the spring (May) and also in the fall (October) and both times it was gorgeous! We even saw some sea lions the second time we visited. There is not a lot of parking right at the beach, but a little ways down there are a couple larger lots.

One of the best beaches in the world. Great for long walks, amazing waves when the surf is up, great for surfers. Most of the beach and parking lot were wiped out in the storm of 1978, but they do have shuttle bus service which is very easy to use and very convenient. Outside showers, inside bathroom and changing rooms, a ramp to the beach (Shannon H was at Nauset Light Beach, not Coast Guard), lifeguards on duty during the season, parking for your bikes. Remember, it is an ocean beach, so it is cold and the waves can be rough at times.

A great place to enjoy nature's beauty and a peaceful walk on the beach to enjoy the ocean waves and sand. A nice small parking lot is near by and the wave were huge and crashing the day we were there.

Clean rest rooms, easy stairs to beach with multiple landings, beautiful rolling dunes, plenty of beach space. Seals galore, the occasional shark sighting, many huge cargo ships on the horizon heading to and fro Boston. Just an awesome place to leave the world behind.

While the view is breathtaking, this is not a place to bring small children. We went two years ago with two children who were 2 and 6 at the time. From the parking area, one must descend more than 100 steps to get to the beach. Not convenient for small children who need to go potty. The bathrooms had no soap or toilet paper. And there were so many sharp rocks and such rough surf and such a steep incline into the water at high tide, that we were not able to go in the water on a 90-degree day. All in all, it was the worst part of our Cape vacation. I do not recommend it for families with small children.

Great to be at the beach off season with our dogs! They loved it whether sleet, rain or snow! Nice to walk and see the ocean

I was here in November and there was plenty of parking but the lot is small as others noted. It's a very nice sandy beach and seeing the seals is fun. There's an overlook if you don't want to walk down to the beach and with the cold weather, I chose to watch from above. I would imagine during high season, it is very crowded and can see why. There are parking lots with a shuttle in high season so you can still get there. Either way, the view is pleasant.

This beach is where my family will have a great time. When you go at low tide a sandbar will appear. The waves are perfect for relaxing or having a lot of fun. The only flaw about this beach is the rocks. They are not all that bad but there is a lot of them. But this beach I have ever been to and I will recommend it.:)

We stopped here while in Cape Cod, after the Park Ranger highly recommended it. It was an absolutely beautiful beach and we loved watching the many seals just off of the coast. We wished we had had more time to enjoy this beach. Many other reviewers discussed the cost of parking here - we were here in October and there was no cost to park. The Ranger said this fee is only applicable during peak times.

You have to park your car and take a tram to get to the beach. But it is well worth the trouble once you get there. Very nice and wide beach. When you are there, check out the sandpiper nests. The seals are fun to watch too!

The parking lot is very small and most part of the parking space is reserved till 11am. We arrived around 11am and after a few minutes waiting we got a spot.The beach is gorgeous and big, you can take a nice walk along the sea. It's very natural and clean. When we visited it was windy and a bit cold (Columbus weekend) but still very enjoyable.

This is a great beach but there are few places to park. Fortunately we were there in October and parking was not a problem.

I particularly enjoyed the nature walks & history talks. The beach was stunning from the Coast Guard Station overlook.

The sand cliffs, old coast guard station and beach for miles makes this beach very charming. Be prepared though as the parking lot is tiny and you need to take a shuttle from another lot. After waiting 15 minutes we did find a spot but that was after labour day. There are change room and washroom facilities. There was a sandbar further out with hundreds of seals, the water was a gorgeous colour with big waves. Now be prepared the water is cold. Most people on the beach had a sweater on and surfers had body suits but we still swam for 30 minutes until my hands were numb. A beautiful relaxing area just to relax on the beach.
