Coast Guard Beach

Beach
Outdoor Activities
Coast Guard Beach in Eastham is a top beach destination on Cape Cod, known for its expansive golden sands and stunning natural scenery. It's a great spot for swimming, with calm waters monitored by attentive lifeguards. The beach also offers opportunities for surfing, boogie boarding, bird watching, and wildlife viewing. As part of the Cape Cod National Seashore, it provides visitors with picturesque views and a safe environment to enjoy the sun and ocean.
This is officially one of my favorite beaches in Cape. When I first walked down to the beach, I saw a lot of people, but then I looked to my right and saw no one, for miles. We had to climb over this big boulder that felt like clay to get to the other side. It was rather challenging to get back once we did because of high tide. But it was well worth it. It's absolutely beautiful.

I really loved this beach in Cape Cod. There were lots of seals 🦭❤️ The beach was well-maintained and peaceful. I found parking easily, but it was a weekday around 1 p.m., so it’s probably more crowded on weekends. The restrooms were clean. There were also some nice trails! Next time, I’ll bring my bike, there are so many beautiful spots to explore in Cape Cod!

Beautiful beach with good accessibility option! With your handicap parking placard, parking at the beach is allowed, rather than taking the shuttle. Lots of HP parking. The view from parking lot is nice with benches. Concrete and hard packed paths to a view point on the bluff,the restrooms building, the outside showers, and down the path along the road to beach access. From the road is blue accessible path to the beach. My husband’s battery powered scooter made it to the end. There were 2 beach wheelchair available.

Beautiful beach but it gets windy and wavy. If you are staying in the area, it may be easier to bike to this beach as many parking places are reserved for residents. Otherwise, come after 5 when parking is available to everyone.

Beautiful long sandy beach! There's a big area that is lifeguard protected (which I recommend staying at because there can be sharks!). The coastline is pretty large so you have plenty of space to sit and enjoy the beach. The water is very cold though! You have to pay for the parking (but it can be used in the same day for all the other state parks/beaches on the Cape) and a shuttle takes you at the beach (3ish min ride), or there's a parking much closer for Eastham residents and disabled people. The entry of the beach is accessible and there were 2 beach wheelchairs available.

Over hyped as we need to be cautious while swimming. Certainly, this beache is for surfing. Some time tide was rally high, which may drag you in. Sand 5/5 Clean5/5 Life guard 5/5 Water 4/5 is too cold in mid-July. Rest room 10/5 best. Friendly staff 5/5 You can't go there as is, meaning there is a parking place half mile before beach, then the shuttle will drop you.

Cape Cod National Seashore - Salt Pond Visitor Center

Visitor center
History Museums
Nestled within the stunning Cape Cod National Seashore, the Salt Pond Visitor Center serves as an ideal starting point for your adventure. Operated by the National Park Service, this center offers a wealth of information about the area's rich ecology and history through engaging exhibits and short films. The knowledgeable staff is on hand to provide maps for hiking and cycling trails that begin right at the center, ensuring you can easily explore this beautiful landscape.
It was heartening to find the visitor center open given all the unnecessary upheaval in Washington, DC. The ranger was friendly and helpful when I asked about a lighthouse hike in Provincetown. The museum is chock full of interesting and informative displays and the gift shop has plenty of Cape Cod souvenirs. It’s sleepy in the off season but undoubtedly a zoo in the summer. Hopefully they get the staffing required to help visitors enjoy this national treasure. Highly recommended!

We visited on a Sunday afternoon in mid-June 2025. There was plenty of parking spots in the parking lot but we were a little early in the season. There were a number of ranger programs offered but we didn't really have time. The info desk was staffed by multiple rangers and kids got their junior ranger books. However they seemed very reluctant to give out maps. We were able to get one but had to ask specifically for it and say that we collect them. If you go to the right around the info desk, it's where the park store is at. The store is slightly larger than the one at the visitor center in Provincetown. However they do carry different items. So if you see something you like, don't wait to get it. The NPS Passport Cancellation Stamps are located just right outside the book store. If you continue down the hallway there is the museum. It's a pretty good size and has a large number of exhibits. Kids spent maybe 15 mins in there but you could spend a while if you wanted to read everything. If you walk to the other end of the visitor center there is a art gallery and also a theater which plays a short film. If you walk out the back doors of the visitor center there is an observation deck that looks out over salt pond. There is also a nice photo op sign. There are also trails that start back here that aren't very difficult either. Although I do recall mosquitos. As long as you don't stop, they didn't seem to bother us to much. Overall a great visitor center and significantly larger than the one at Provincetown. It's was also much more busy. We would stop by again if visiting cape cod national seashore. It's a great place to get info about trail closures etc.

A wonderful first stop if you are a tourist. The staff is fantastic and the museum is really educational. Cape Cod can be very confusing( where can I park etc) and the staff here will help save you time! Also--- they have a great display about the original inhabitants of the area and the several tribes. All good!

This was a great experience all around! I am glad to see that this visitor center was still running well in the summer season with the Fed's insistence on defunding our bel9ved National Parks (and changing lived history - see pic included). The rangers were informative, the film we watched and exhibit we walked through were educational, and there was a gift shop and clean restrooms as well. Highly recommend a stop here to get acquainted with the area and support our NPS.
Jackie A — Google review
Large visitor center parking lot with restrooms outside of the center and inside. The museum was very interesting. There are different park ranger events throughout the day. There is a theatre that shows various reels of information pertaining to Cape Cod. Gift shop with Cape Cod National Park souvenirs with reasonable prices. The staff were very friendly.

It's great to read about the area, they give quite a selection of short videos on surrounding attractions, which yes, also included Sharks of Cape Cod. I actually caught the film about the sea adventures which described whaling and what that was like, plus the changes that the Cape has endured. All free btw. The store has stickers,books,clothing and other tourist stuff as well as information. The rangers were very helpful and informative. I was there end of Sept 2025 so I guess they don't charge the park fees/Beach fees at this time of year. The center also has public bathrooms, handicapped accessible, plenty of free parking, filtered water stations so people can refill their bottles, bike & walking paths,great views of the salty marshes,plus they had a front door board letting you know when the Ranger tours happened at the different locations, and there didn't appear to be any charges for those either. There's a small museum of sorts toward the back end of the store.

Nauset Light Beach

Mentioned on

Beach
Outdoor Activities
Nauset Light Beach is a picturesque and spacious swimming beach located in Eastham, Massachusetts. It features the iconic Nauset Lighthouse, known for its appearance on Cape Cod Potato Chips bags. The beach offers large waves suitable for bodysurfing or board surfing and is equipped with amenities such as restrooms, showers, and a seasonal bathhouse. Additionally, there are lifeguards on duty to ensure safety.
A beautiful beach with ample parking and a lovely path leading to the shore. The dunes and waves were very impressive. We saw several seals frolicking in the water, and there were rumors of a great white shark sighting. The sand is soft and clean; a beautiful beach! The lighthouse is toward the end of the parking lot - not as rusticly beachfront as I expected (it had to be moved inland years ago due to beach erosion), but still very picturesque for a few photos on our way out.
Diane L — Google review
Such a great beach with the 3 Sisters lighthouses close by, the lighthouse was using its red & white signals on 1 day while I visited. There were plenty of large Grey seals <6ft from the surf, yet stupid people entering water just left of their appearance, come on! Pay attention to the posted warnings ⚠️, not put there for "tourists " geez. In late September, park no longer collects fees, so was free=nice surprise! Here on sunny day & rainy day, beach remains clean. This beach sports public bathrooms, handicapped parking, picnic tables, benches down the pathway to the beach. Like the blue mats they've placed along the pathway closer to the beach,makes walking much easier. Plenty of room here, even though it is still "in season " until after Halloween, noticed plenty of families enjoying the beach. If you have little children, just be sure to keep an eye on them as the surf could come in faster than you expect/much stronger than it appears.
Michele G — Google review
We came because we had two dogs with us. A few other people had theirs too. Very comfortable beach. There are changing rooms and toilets and everything. I loved the trees on the path leading up to the water : it felt like an island. Nice, fine sand. Would definitely come back. It seems like the parking here is really expensive during the regular season but we came off season on a nice day.
Nicole G — Google review
As someone who was born and raised on the Cape, this is one of the least enjoyable beaches for me. Cons: Abundance of seals very close to shore. Anyone with small children should avoid this beach at all costs. Extremely large groups of seals not even 15 feet from the shore. People will argue seals are harmless, but I would never feel safe letting any child, or myself, be within feet of 500lb sea creatures with fangs. Additionally, the water here is FREEZING. It is the last week of July and the water isn't even 60 degrees. Pros: Clean and nice bathrooms/changing areas, some of the best on the Cape. No rocks, beautiful sandy beach. Very quiet, and clean beach. Little to no bugs, seaweed or seagulls, which present problems at most other beaches. Free parking after 5pm. The beach itself is very pretty, clean and accessable. Unfortunately, the large groups of seals right off shore and the freezing cold water make this a beach that you can only enjoy by lounging in the sand, and not going into the water.

Lovely setting on the Atlantic side of the Cape. Paved parking, restrooms, fresh water showers and a walkway to the beach. Some of the larger waves and surf along the Cape are here. Seals, too, so there can be sharks.... so be wise.
Mark O — Google review
We went here because we had a dog. We loved this beach because the sand is fine, not a lot of (or barely) kelp/seaweed. The waves were fun and not too aggressive but the water was very cold. We eventually got used to the water's temperature :) The parking lot is small here so it's better to come early morning or afternoon (around 2pm-3pm). ALSO the famous lighthouse on the Cape Cod chips bag is just 3 min walk away!
Nghi P — Google review
Exceptional. Nice wide sandy beach. Life guards on duty, lots of shells, rocks and water puppies (Seals)to look at. Water in late July was about 70 (felt cooler), Parking is tough, waited an hour around 1pm, 1 in 1 out situation but it moved and was totally worth it. At the top of the dunes there are change rooms and washrooms. No food or bathrooms by the beach.
Matthew R — Google review
Visited 07/28/21 at 13:37 and my advice is to go early and on foot/by bike if you can manage because the parking is very VERY limited due to construction. The bathroom and parking area are restricted to port-a-potties and there is no rinsing area for feet. The parking situation was the only reason for having 4 stars over 5. Walk in/biking prices were $15 for the day pass and car prices were $25 if you can manage to get a spot. I have nothing but nice things to say aside from the parking situation. The park rangers were helpful and the locals were nice as well. We saw several seals just offshore and we left the beach at high tide around 16:00 the beach is gorgeous to walk along and was very clean. More info shared with us via the rangers: With the parking pass you gain access to all of the nearby beaches and the Salt Pond for the day which is nice if you'd like to leave for lunch and return later (granted you can find space) or visit another park. It is a 10 minute walk from the Three Sisters Lighthouses and about a 20 minute walk from the Cost Guard Beach.

Historical landmark
Sights & Landmarks
Lighthouses
Nauset Lighthouse, a charming red and white lighthouse dating back to 1838, is a must-visit landmark on Cape Cod. It offers seasonal tours and features interpretive signage that tells the story of its relocation from Chatham to Eastham. The lighthouse serves as a warning to passing boats with its alternating red-and-white light visible for 23 miles every 10 seconds. Visitors can climb the tight corkscrew stairs on certain days for panoramic views.
Nice views from the lighthouse. Another 10 minutes walk on the trail and you can visit the Three Sister's. The parking lot is well maintained and the adjacent beach is stunning (paid parking lot). The Three Sister's parking lot is free but only for half hour (accessible through Nauset Beach Light Road).

We visited on a late Monday afternoon in mid-June 2025. There was plenty of parking in the parking lot. There was no one in the booth during our visit and no way to really pay. I wonder if they were understaffed and just couldn't put someone here. If you have the NPS Pass then you're good. We did sit ours on our dashboard just in case. But it's $25 per vehicle and $15 per person if you're walking or biking in. We were here to get our picture with our potato chip bag like many others were doing during our visit. We saw like 4 or 5 other groups looking to do the exact same time. You kind of unofficially wait in line for your turn. There are different angles you can time but to get the one perfectly with the photo on the chip bag you have to stand like in middle of the road. It was very picturesque in late evening. There are a few kiosks with signs and additional structures. We didn't have much time here so we didn't really explore more than just the light house and then moved onto the three sisters light houses. There is a trail here to walk down to the other light houses but it was easier just to walk back to our car and drive down the street. Overall we would probably visit again and explore more of the area and maybe actually hang out at the beach. It's too bad you can't go up into the light house.
David L — Google review
Once you arrive at the lighthouse by car, you have to pay around $20 for the large parking lot with clean restrooms. The clerk said that the parking ticket was valid for all parking spaces with beach access for that day. The beautiful lighthouse makes a perfect Instagram motif, with the famous Cape Cod Chips brand. Here you'll also find one of the oldest transatlantic submarine cable stations and other small twin lighthouses. The path to the beautiful Nauset Light Beach leads through a beautiful coastal forest. Once you get down there, you'll be greeted by friendly beach patrols at the beach entrance. The beach has very fine sand, and here and there you'll find surfers with a decent swell. If you're lucky, you might see seals. But be careful: where seals swim, there are also the notorious predators, see the signs near the beach.

My husband and I visited Nauset Lighthouse on 10-31-25. The beach area was so clean and beautiful. I was so lucky to find some special rocks that someone had painted. It made me smile, and yes I took one. The lighthouse was beautiful and well taken care of. Definitely a great place to visit and have lunch. Maybe even go swimming 😳 . There was no charge to visit the lighthouse or beach area when we went, due to the Government shutdown. The bathrooms were not open during our visit.

Volunteers tell you the history of the lighthouse before you step inside. Then another guide tells you more when you reach the top. They bring up about 15 people at a time. No admission fee charged, but donations are encouraged. They have a prop Cape Cod Potato Chip bag to take photos with which was cool. Very nice people volunteering. Worth a stop.

The iconic Nauset Lighthouse, is situated exactly in the Cape's mid point, in the Eastham, MA. During the off season the parking is free (during the season June to September it is $20), and the restrooms are closed. The lighthouse is easily accessible. You probably noticed this lighthouse on the famous New England Cape Cod's chips. You can walk down to the ocean, the beach is clean, the sand is so soft, and the water is so clean. We have even spotted a seal there. Near the Nauset Lighthouse, there is a trail to non working Three sisters lighthouses. You can walk there around 5 minutes, or you can drive there, as they have a small 30min free parking lot there.
Rose D — Google review
We had a lovely time at Nauset Light on Cape Cod. It’s exactly the kind of place you imagine when you think of New England lighthouses. The red & white tower stands out beautifully against the sky, and walking toward it through dunes and scrub gives you that classic coastal vibe. The lighthouse has a rich history. It was originally built in 1877 and then moved to its current Eastham location in 1923. Over time it’s been relocated further from the eroding cliff edge to preserve it. The surrounding area is part of the Cape Cod National Seashore, and there’s Nauset Light Beach just below the cliffs. Take time to walk around, enjoy views from the dunes, maybe hit the beach afterward, and don’t forget your camera — this lighthouse is more than just a landmark; it feels like folklore come to life. Parking can fill up early in the day, so it’s good to arrive early.
Peter S — Google review
Loved getting to see this beautiful light in person on our 15th wedding anniversary. The actual light house is privately owned and occupied, so there is no tour to really go on, but make sure you walk the trail from the main light down to The Three Sisters. There you'll find the three lights that used to stand and signal on the coastline, but have since been moved back, and what's left of them preserved from coastline erosion.

Historic Sites
The Captain Penniman House in Eastham is a must-visit for history enthusiasts. This French Second Empire style house, built in 1868, was once owned by the renowned sea captain Edward Penniman. Visitors can explore the family's written records and artifact collections, gaining insights into their whaling voyages. Additionally, nearby attractions such as the Eastham 1869 Schoolhouse Museum and Indian Rock offer further glimpses into the town's rich history.
Beautiful home of an historic whaling captain, worth a stop to check it out. It would have been cool to see the whale jawbones archway installed in 1969, but it was removed several years ago for safety concerns. The previous jawbone, which went up in 1876, can be seen at the Provincetown Museum that is part of the Pilgrim Monument. Highly recommended!

Five stars for our ranger Lillibeth. She was very knowledgeable and so friendly with our two children. I will say if you plan to visit the house when it's open, be prepared for a 40 min ranger talk before entrance to see the house. You can see both the downstairs and upstairs of the house , a few rooms are furnished. So again, if you have kids or have trouble standing for long periods of time, you will be standing/sitting on the lawn for almost an hour listening to the talk. We enjoyed our time here, learned quite a lot about the Penniman family and whaling and enjoyed viewing the house.

This is close to the Cape Cod National Park & the 3 Sisters Lighthouses. Unfortunately, no place to really park and take a poke around the house/barn. Check at the CCNP for Ranger tours(free). If you drive to the end of the road it gives you a great view of the ocean. Another freebie is a walking trail down to the marsh area, was very wet the day I came, no benches to rest on, parking limited to about 6/8 vehicles depending upon size. It's also in a tight residential area, so be mindful of your speed(25-30mph bcuz road is skinny). If you get a chance take the Ranger tour of the Captains house ; it was very modern in its day bcuz of the heating & plumbing He had installed inside his house. There is a YouTube video on it as well,if you miss the tour. Nice Victorian minus fireplaces. ~Michele Del Gaizo, Carver MA

Sights & Landmarks
The 1869 Schoolhouse Museum in Cape Cod is a well-preserved, historical educational institution that unfortunately remains closed due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. However, visitors can still explore the exterior of the building and catch glimpses of its interior through the windows. This museum offers a wealth of information about Eastham's rich history, featuring an authentic classroom setting that provides a firsthand experience of what education was like in the past. Additionally, it boasts an impressive Christmas exhibit and operates on donations.
What a wonderful testament to not only the townspeople of Eastham, many of whom are captured during their childhoods in photo displays, but the volunteers who have brought this gem of a building back to its former glory. The old classroom, the display cases filled with history and memories -- the 1869 Schoolhouse captures moments in time long gone.

This museum is absolutely worth a visit if you find yourself in Eastham. They recently completed an extension to the building that has allowed for even more exhibitions. They have exhibits on all kinds of Eastham history, from sports to pilgrims to military (they have so much!). All exhibits are well done and the volunteers who work here all know what they are talking about. I am so glad I had a chance to visit this museum and I would definitely come back if I find myself in the area again.

Fort Hill Trail is a 1-mile loop located in the Eastham section of the National Seashore. The trail offers stunning views of Nauset Marsh and the Atlantic Ocean, making it a popular spot for birders and outdoor enthusiasts. Hikers can expect to see native wildlife and enjoy the beautiful natural landscape along this slightly strenuous and hilly trail.
This is a beautiful spot high on a hill overlooking the water. I can't recommend that you visit this spot highly enough. And there are plenty of trails to hike throughout this beautiful spot. I highly recommend that you at least go and look at the view as it's just spectacular.

Very nice place for a hike! It might be a bit boring in the winter, as if you were wondering about on a heath - but that's when I visited it the first time. When it enters into the spring/summer (whatever), things really change - everything turning greenish. In this, you'll find a vast coverage of grasses, the beach view, and much more. I saw rabbits, deers, singing birds, and whatever flowers on a rainy late spring/early summer day.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fort Hill Trail – A Hidden Gem in Cape Cod What an incredible experience! We visited Fort Hill Trail today and were absolutely enchanted by its natural beauty. The air was crisp and refreshing, the landscape pristine, and the views—simply breathtaking. It’s a peaceful, uncrowded spot that offers everything from scenic ocean overlooks to quiet trails perfect for walking, relaxing, or even kayaking nearby. The gentle breeze and coastal charm made it feel like a true escape from the everyday. Highly recommended for anyone seeking tranquility, nature, and a touch of Cape Cod magic.

This is a nice little hiking place in the Orleans. I would definitely recommend everyone to go for a walk twice a week, as it is surrounded with nature, beach side, trees, old historical rocks. I would suggest not to bring any pets cuz it's not allowed. There is one restroom next to the starting point at the lake. There is a swamp trail. Loved this one. Go take a walk with nature once in a while.

NO PETS! except if you have pets on leash depending on which sign you read. We brought our dog, planned to walk around the loop and saw it was a “Pet Free” park. BUT, observed several people with their dogs and signage indication that one could walk their dog… Beautiful park though. Well maintained boardwalk except for a recent hole from a fallen branch. Recommendations- 1- please update all signs to reflect whichever policy it is (pets or no pets) 2- ensure that websites and google maps identifies that this is a non pet friendly trail. 3- put some signs up letting folks know there is a giant hole in the boardwalk… Thanks NPS.

Beautiful. Simply beautiful. I love reading about the history of the area and seeing the sharpening stone. There is a reason Champlain looked over the land with awe. Definitely go here. Small parking but free so that is pretty awesome. There is a picnic table under a gazebo so could bring a lunch. No guarantees it isn’t taken but it was empty the day we were there.

Doane Rock is a fascinating natural landmark located within the stunning Cape Cod National Seashore. This impressive boulder, shaped by glacial movements, serves as a reminder of the area's geological history. Visitors can enjoy grilling in designated picnic spots around Doane Rock and other nearby locations like Pilgrim Heights and Marconi Station Site. For those looking to savor a meal outdoors, charcoal and gas grills are permitted on the outer beaches, provided they stay clear of protected areas.
I didn’t bring a banana for scale, but you can get a better picture of how large the stone is with me as the human for scale. This is Doane Rock in Eastham—one of the largest exposed glacial erratics in southern New England. Left behind by retreating glaciers over 18,000 years ago, it’s a striking reminder of Cape Cod’s Ice Age past and a fun stop if you’re exploring the National Seashore.

Swarmed by Mosquitoes – Avoid Doane Rock Picnic Area A ranger from the Visitor Center recommended we eat lunch here, but we were immediately swarmed by mosquitoes — over 30+ bites each within seconds. We tried multiple pavilions, all worse than the last. Ran back to the car and they aggressively and relentlessly followed us. Even saw hikers at the trails nearby turning back swatting themselves. No warning signs anywhere. We told a ranger at Nauset Light Beach. I suggested he call or communicate with the team at the Visitors Center to stop suggesting picnicing at Doane Rock. He shrugged and couldn’t care less. Honestly, they need to close the section off. Skip the picnic area and eat at the beach instead — zero mosquitoes there. Poorly managed, no signage, and the rangers showed zero care. Sending visitors into those conditions is irresponsible to say the least.

Cool rock with donate to explain its history. There are some trails you can walk to from here. You can walk to the beach from here but there is a 2-hour parking time limit. I recommend BUG SPRAY!!

Didn’t try the raw oyster bar but the selection was great and looked delicious. The fried clams were fresh and beautifully flash friend, has fresh corn that was a perfect match.

We stopped here and got the platter for two. It was their first day opening for the season. Although the food appeared to be cooked perfectly it didn't have any flavor. It was like they left the seasoning out of the breading. It got a little greasy toward the bottom of the plate, but that's to be expected. It's a great place with a great location.
Larry H — Google review
Most of the food here is fried, I saw that they serve baked fish, but unfortunately only after 5 pm so we got the clams and they were just sitting in oil, not my thing😔 The ice cream though was amazing and so tasty. It was a super hot day when we came. Inside was a little cooler but most of the tables are outside and there were only a couple of fans so it still felt really hot.

We ordered calamari, clam chowder and a hot lobster roll. My daughter only ate the calamari. She said it was the best calamari ever. Prepare cash because it’s a cash or check only restaurant.

We stopped here like we do every year- 2 Family of 4 people each and ended up spending more than $350 here. And that too all Cash!!!! Although the food appeared to be cooked perfectly it had little flavor. It was like they left the seasoning out of the breading. I would recommend them to do better with those seasoning. They use to be great. We got the warm and cold lobster rolls, lobster bisque, hot dog with Chilli, burger, cheese pasta and more. (Check out the picks). The servings were generous but all the food again was a bit blend. The bisque literally tasted like thick warm milk with chunks of lobster stirred in. Maybe it’s just our tastebuds yearning for seasoning. The lobster was a bit chewy. Service was quick and friendly. Food was served fresh. The fries were tasty. The onion rings were ok. One part of this meal we enjoyed was the coleslaw that includes apples and cranberries. In summary, I was ok with Arnold's Lobster & Clam Bar. Our visit was defined by long lines, outdated payment methods, and mediocre expensive food.

A visit to Arnold's Lobster & Clam Bar in Eastham is a must-do on any Cape Cod vacation. This place has been an institution since the late 1950s, and the vibrant, bustling energy is the essence of a classic summer destination. While the place can get crowded, the service is quick and attentive. The menu is a bit expensive, but the food's quality is worth every penny. The lobster roll was absolutely delicious, and the burgers were fantastic. Be sure to check out their raw bar and great beer selection. Just remember to bring cash! What makes Arnold's truly special is the complete experience. After your meal, you can wander over to the mini-golf course or grab a scoop of ice cream from the shop. It's a fantastic spot that captures the spirit of a Cape Cod summer perfectly.

We recently went to the BH with a large group. Everyone ordered something different and everything was excellent. Ever the vegetarians in our group raved about the choice and quality. We had a wide array of dishes including, Steak, clam chowder, chicken Marsala, fish tacos,veg pasta, Scallops in rum orange sauce, and salads. Everything was fresh and cooked to perfection. The only negative was: the room was freezing. and even after we asked them to turn down the A/C, it stayed cold for a long time. We almost left and went to another restaurant in town that has outdoor dining, which would have been much more comfortable. We definitely will go back again and hopefully the temperature will be comfortable.

The grilled jerk chicken breast dinner is where it's at here. Paired with its oh so good mango salsa topping and coconut rice. My mouth is still watering, thinking about that tender chicken marinated with that spicy deliciousness that I just ate. I wish I had this recipe being a chicken fanatic. It's so good that I'd be making this on a regular if I knew how. Haha! :) The presentation of this meal is undeniably beautiful too. The colours of the fruit and veg combo just pop right off the plate. It's nice eye candy for those who love taking pictures of their food. And let's face it, I know that so many of us do when it looks this esthetically pleasing. You'll see what I mean from my picture, it'll sure make you hungry. And the nice thing here is the portions are very generous to justify the price, so much that I was too full for dessert.

We were pleasantly surprised by this venue for our Sunday breakfast. Plenty of parking is available out front and there are mobility ramps for each entrance. We were seated promptly but it gets busy and a wait is not uncommon. Service was great, prompt and efficient. My Silver Skillet meal was filling, hot and tasty. My wife had sausage,eggs and biscuits and was very pleased. Dining rooms included outdoor patio seating. Pricing was very good and I can recommend this place.

Great service, a varied menu, and incredible food! What a lovely surprise to have so many different options and to have all of them be terrific. A great spot if you have a few people craving different cuisines. Everyone loved their meals! Good prices too! My only recommendation is that the turkey pot pie should come with mashed potatoes. Luckily it was an easy add on as a side. :-) It was delicious!

I had a disappointing experience at your restaurant. When we arrived, our reserved table was changed without notice. The food took a very long time to arrive, and the issue wasn’t about quantity, but quality — it simply didn’t meet expectations. Very disappointed coming from another state and the results are sad. I ordered a Margarita and retuned. Horrible…… I wanted to share this feedback so you’re aware.

I rarely comment on places. However, the breakfast was one of the best in a long time. I had Eggs Benedict with the potato pancake (unusual for me as I'm a purist when it comes to Eggs Benedict) and it was fabulous! The coffee was very good which is something I do not say often as I prefer dark roasts. There was something about this coffee that I actually took it to go (I've never done before). I look forward to my next trip to Eastham and I'll be having breakfast there daily! Keep up the good work, the food, the service, and the friendly atmosphere.

This place was amazing! They were short staffed but still managed to accommodate our party of 5 during a busy Sunday brunch. The bartender took our table and was extremely friendly. He quickly got our drink order and promptly got slammed with patrons at the bar. We enjoyed our drinks for a bit while he got caught up. Came back and apologized for keeping us waiting, but we didn't mind. The food was fantastic! Everything was full of flavor and fresh. Thank you for an amazing meal and wonderful service.

Finally got a chance to try out Brine. The ambiance of this place is outstanding although I would say try to get a spot on the left side as there are windows on the right that look into the adjoining restaurant. That being said, the food and service were both superb and did not disappoint. The peanut wings were a great blend of sweet and spicy that didn't overwhelm either sense, and garnished to give a fantastic crunch. The hake was cooked perfectly, and was fresh. The steak also was cooked exactly to order. I really liked the unique french fries. They were very thin and flavorful, so much so I didn't use ketchup. There is a great drink menu here and I would like to come back to sit at the bar some day to try a few of their cape cod themed takes on classics like sangria and margaritas. I will be back here for sure.

Pleasantly surprised. Excellent mix of options. Definitely has something for everyone. I loved the servers response to my request for an egg to be added to the Monti Cristo to which he said "Anything is possible". The hardest thing was to be able to decide between all the enticing twists to the usual breakfast choices. My husband enjoyed the Cauliflower Linguica Hash & Eggs. I'm looking forward to going back and trying some Banana bread french toast, or one of the many other inventive Hash & Eggs offerings. Service was very good and the place was pretty much full. I didn't even realize our server, Joseph, was the only one waiting tables until we were on our way out. The price point is not shocking and actually well worth every cent for the Healthy portions.

So run down and the food was terrible. They oysters weren’t served over ice, the drinks tasted like soda they were overly sweet. The salad I got was nothing special and in fact I can make a better salad at home. Came here for the vegetarian options but left very upset with what we were served. I would not recommend this to anyone who is hoping for a nice ambiance and nice meal. Probably a good place to take kids since it is not fancy in the slightest. Will never be returning

Outstanding! Seek this place out! Tucked back in a strip of stores off Rt. 6. Inviting interior. Beautiful outdoor patio seating available as well. Our party enjoyed the calamari, ham & cheese croquettes, the street corn and the mussels. The broth the mussels are in is absolutely delicious with house-made chorizo and fresh corn. Really top-notch. We had the salmon entree and the swordfish entree and both were cooked perfectly, seasoned well and paired with tasty sides. We also had the pork tacos which were juicy and delicious. Cocktails were also very good. Service was friendly, attentive and welcoming. A terrific meal I won’t soon forget.

We've all been to "good" restaurants and we've all been to bad ones, but occasionally you find one that gets it completely right. My wife and I went here for dinner also based off reviews and it seemed like a safe bet, however this place exceeded our expectations greatly. So much so we ate there two nights in a row. From the very start our Server Nico was friendly, enthusiastic, knowledgeable of the menu, and checked on us frequently enough that our glasses were never empty. His service was exceptional. Then came the appetizer (the steamed mussels in a corn chowder base with seasoned grilled ciabatta bread). Probably one of the best appetizers I've had. Then the main course, which over our two visits included the swordfish, the chicken tacos, the pork milanese, and the salmon, along with the empanadas. Each of which was just as delicious as the other. We do not believe we could find anything wrong with Casa del Cabo even if we tried. From the service, to the atmosphere, to the food, I find it hard to choose another word to describe it other than perfect. After two dinners there it has become our personal favorite restaurant on the Cape so far. Will be returning there for many years to come! P.S. try the Flan for dessert it's out of this world!!!

So this place has been here since the pilgrims arrived. I think they played mini golf here. My wife has been coming here for almost 50 years. It feels like it is a Cape Cod legend. My kids and grand kids had a good time with the mini golf for 6$ a person it was a fair price. Nothing fancy with the mini golf but my daughter was able to get her wheelchair around in it pretty well. So that was very nice. I was a little skeptical about the pizza but it has really improved since I was here last. We got the bbq chicken and the margarita and they were both good. Except the margarita should just be called a veggie pizza. The Red Barn is a legend. Go check it out.

A place where my family and I always had looked forward to going to on our vacation until this past visit. We ordered two large salads, pizza and wings. All was seemingly good and well until my husband was dishing out our salad on to plates and found a uncooked chicken wing in it. The salads we ordered did not contain any meat. We called and spoke with management and they said well you won't get sick because it isn't raw and compensated us by refunding us for the one salad. Completely disgusted and disappointed with the poor handling of the food and the compensation to us.
Brooke — Google review
If you look at the picture you can see it’s very light on the sauce. They have always done that but been willing to provide extra for those who asked for it. Not good to serve dry pasta, there’s only enough to cover the chicken. Maybe you should raise the prices .50 to serve an adequate amount of sauce rather than offering to charge an extra $2 or whatever for what should come with… And you can hold the bread too, it’s just filling and usually goes in the trash. And sorry to ding the service which is always fine, but she should have some latitude to satisfy the customers if they have to ask.

We were visiting the area and went here for dinner at a local’s recommendation. This place did not disappoint: the food was really good, the cheese pizza my kids ordered took about 30 min but we were told it would when we ordered so we were not surprised. I had the antipasto salad which was delicious, I really enjoyed the focaccia on the side and the dressing was really good! I liked the casual family friendly vibes…and the best part for my kids was the arcade!! They won a bunch of prizes at the claw machine games! There’s also mini golf on site and a store which we didn’t get a chance to check out. My kids would eat here every day during our vacation and I look forward to returning!! Thought this place was super affordable also, paid about $26 for a small pie and a small antipasto salad!

New American restaurant
Rock Harbor Grill is a warm and family-friendly tavern located in Orleans, MA. The restaurant offers a varied menu with options for both seafood lovers and landlubbers. From chowders and lobster rolls to wood-fired pizzas and duck sliders, there's something for everyone. In addition to indoor dining, the restaurant also provides outdoor seating as well as to-go options. The eclectic dining menu features many dishes baked in their brick oven, along with fabulous handcrafted cocktails.
Rock Harbor Grill in Orleans definitely meets and exceeds ALL of the rave reviews! We had the artisan salad with grilled shrimp and the NEW Calamari Salad that just hit their menu .. hands down the BEST salads we have had in months! It is WORTH the trip up the Cape! Friendly and attentive service, amazing atmosphere, and the food was exceptional!

This place is awesome, their food is consistently really good, the salmon dish I ordered was amazing. The pretzel bread to start with is always a favorite and their pizza is good too. Always a nice time

I’m excited about this place. We got the Guinness Fish and Chip and the salmon dish for eat in and a pizza to go. All outstanding! Loved the wood fire pizza oven as ambience. Wonderful bar setting. Staff great. I want to say the owner or manager made his way to each table to ask how things were and that was very nice and caring. Definitely will get a couple of visits each time we come to the Cape. To go pizza held its crunch next day out of toaster oven.

They have bar, covered outdoor, and indoor seating. We went at 530 and there were a few tables but when we left at 630, the place was packed. All the staff was friendly and efficient. They give you soft pretzel logs with a seasoned butter instead of bread- LOVE! Large menu with drinks and food. Pizza was awesome and it came out super fast. Highly recommend if in the area.

The rock harbor grille was a great experience. We have gone to the cape my whole life and have tried pretty much everywhere over the years. They give you fresh pretzels for bread with a unique butter dip. The pasta and clam dish had a unique roasted tomato guanciale and basil that made it stand out. My father in law loved the salmon, and the cod dish and grazing board were superb. Service was great, highly recommend giving the place a shot. We went again this week, some of our group got the salmon, my mother in law tried the scallop special. Everything including drinks was good. I got the beef and reed which was very filling, the swordfish was great. The wing appetizer was also good but expensive for 8 wings. We love this place .

I ordered our food online for 5 people about 10 minutes after the restaurant opened, and 2 of us went to pick it up before the 35 minutes posted on the site. When we got there, I went in to let the hostess know we were there early, but no pressure. As I looked around the dining room, every table was packed with people, all laughing and having a good time. The hostess was great! She said I could sit in the foyer and my bag would be there soon. It was, a few minutes later. Everyone in my group loved what they ordered. The food was delicious and quite enough to fill us up. Thank you!

A friend had dined here on previous vacations and had since heard from others that the pizza was great, so we went last night to see if it measured up to the hype. It did, one-hundred percent! We were sat almost immediately...there is indoor seating and outdoor screened-in seating. We ended up with a fabulous server, Jayde S. She was so personable, friendly, and attentive, and she was great at giving recommendations. They have a nice variety of specialty cocktails to choose from. Two of us had the Orchard Grog: Twenty Boat Spiced Rum, Orchard Pear Liquor, and apple cider; It was super-tasty and warmed us up after being outside in the chilly evening air. The third had the Cape Cod Red from the tap. Our server asked if we wanted the complimentary pretzel bread sticks...which come with whipped mustard butter...and we were glad we'd said yes. They're warm and fluffy inside, with a smooth pretzel-like finish on the outside. Combined with the tasty, subtle mustard butter, they were a great little starter before dinner. One of us got a side salad, which had a nice variety of fresh salad veggies atop the greens, and I got a side of their fresh broccoli slaw. The slaw was crunchy and flavorful. I'd absolutely order it again! (Fyi...contains cilantro; I'm not sure if they can serve it without for those whose taste buds aren't cilantro friendly.) Our three choices for pizzas were: Wild Mushroom pizza, a Traditional Pizza customized with added carmelized onion, and a Traditional Pizza customized with goat cheese and pepperoni. All three got big thumbs up! The crust is nice and thin and had a perfect crispiness to it. The edge crust was crispy, while the inside stayed soft and airy, so we all gobbled every bit of each slice we'd had right up. We noted that on each pizza, the toppings were generously portioned out at a ratio that resulted in every piece having a good amount of toppings. For dessert, one of us ordered the Sticky Toffee Cake. Jayde brought us three spoons, and we were all very happy she did. That toffee cake was *amazing*! The cake was dense and moist, and the toffee syrup was smooth and absolutely mouth-wateringly delicious! There were little flakes of toffee crisp here and there in the sauce. We did order it a lá mode, so it came with a small square bowl of vanilla with a generous drizzle of more toffee syrup. This dessert is HEAVENLY! (My photo shows it with a spoonful taken out of it because I couldn't wait to dig in! 😉) We will absolutely come back here in the future!

Mac's Market & Kitchen

$$$$affordable
Seafood restaurant
Macs Market & Kitchen in Eastham is a popular upscale American seafood restaurant and bar, known for its fresh and locally sourced dishes. It's a great spot for a family dinner or to catch a game with friends at the bar. Hikers often visit after an evening run to refuel, appreciating the delicious food, friendly service, and scenic views from the restaurant's windows. In addition to dining in, customers can also purchase raw fresh seafood from the market on-site.
I had such an insanely good experience at Mac’s Market and Kitchen all thanks to AJ, one of the employees there! We ordered the lobster roll, chowder, and a steamed lobster (only $11.99/ pound)! The market let us know that the steamed lobster would be a to-go order, so I was just expecting it in a bag, but AJ went above and beyond since he knew we would be eating outside, he even cracked the claw shells and tail for me! It was so nice of him, and the lobster quality was phenomenal! Lobster is my favorite food, and I can say it was perfectly cooked! Would 100% recommend going to Mac’s for the delicious chowder and lobster and amazing service!

Good food. The grilled shrimp was delicious. Part of our order was forgotten and it took the whole time the rest of the group ate to get the missing food so that was a bummer. It was nice to sit outside at picnic tables.

!!!RAW CHICKEN!!! alert. Went on 4/21/2025 with my family. We are Eastham locals and it pains me to write this review. We ordered some fish tacos, a beer, and the chicken tenders for my 4 year old. The first issue was when I asked for a cup of water they refused. I was told I must buy a bottle of water for $2. Shady but ok. Then came the wait. After 30 minutes the tenders came out (tacos not prepared yet) and wow are we happy we broke them in half. Had my son eaten one….yeah…use your imagination. The staff refunded our meal and gave a nonchalant, mostly tepid apology. One staff member ducked out in shame. Couldn’t blame him. Thankfully, we drove down the street to The Knack and got some fully cooked (homemade) tenders and tacos. I would be very careful eating at Mac’s or even buying their fish to go. I think the health department should make a visit in the near future before someone gets salmonella.
Matthew E — Google review
The food was pretty good. I had fish and chips and also some calamari. Both were good but the calamari seemed a bit moist and not crispy. That could have been from being in a takeout container though. The fish was a little dry but still nicely breaded. Fries were good. Service for takeout was good and prices were on higher end for what I received
Sam L — Google review
I should say this is a great place to get seafood, but little over budget. Lobster roll is really nice, I love the raw bar as well, oysters are nice! The fried calamari tastes great with ketchup. I don’t like the clam chowder there, it’s not creamy at all. But poke bowl with salmon tastes great! We seat outdoor to eat.
Grace F — Google review
I loved this place! It was delicious and so comforting to go to a seafood restaurant where everything on the menu was celiac safe. I tried the fried shrimp and scallops, the fish tacos, and the clam chowder. The tacos were my favorite, but the fried seafood and fries were also good
Andrea L — Google review
Our first night in town, stopped here for an assortment of fried clams. The fried clams by the time we arrived back our rental 3 minutes away already had grease soaked through the container and was leaking out of the bag. Placing the container on the table allowed the oil to pool on the table. The large order of clam strip yielded about 6 to 8 pieces 2 inches or larger. The rest were about 1/2” pieces with a heavy taste of burnt oil. The whole belly were about the same, all were slightly larger than a quarter. The bill was $220.00 and two full boxes (half our order) was thrown out as they were an inedible crumbling mess of burnt tasting cooking oil. Absolutely nothing in this order tasted like a fried clam we craved during our 8 hour ride here. We chose the place because of the high reviews, but our order was nothing like we expected or paid for. Do yourself a favor and don’t even try this place or waste your money on this poorly cooked seafood. Food pickup was interesting too. We called the order in, traveled the 3 minutes and arrived while it was still being cooked as we could see the chef. We waited in line inside and when I asked for the order, the woman stated you need to go outside to the window. Nobody was outside in line, the window was closed and we were 6 feet away from the woman working the window with our food right in front of us. So we walked outside, asked for our food and the woman picked up the bag that was six feet in front of us when we were inside and handed it to us. I could see if the place was busy and we needed to wait our turn in line, but there was no line…

If you're anywhere near Eastham and are looking for quality fresh fish from a friendly knowledgeable staff, Mac's is where you want to go! We have been shopping here for several years and have never been disappointed. We've purchased chowder (maybe the best I've ever tasted), cod, lobster, swordfish, dozens of raw oysters, clams and all tasted like it must have come out of the water that morning. They also have a menu of prepared food you can enjoy at picnic tables in the shade next to their building. We have been spending at least two weeks on The Cape for the last 18 years and Mac's has become one of the highlights of our annual visit. Highly recommend!!

Nantucket Memorial Airport-ACK

Regional airport
Nantucket Memorial Airport-ACK is the gateway to this picturesque island, located just 30 miles off the coast of Massachusetts. The island, once a major whaling hub, boasts a charming cobblestoned town designated as a National Historic District. With over 800 buildings dating back to before the Civil War, Nantucket exudes history and laid-back vibes.
We flew in on a TBM from PA. Wind put a few bumps in approach. Beautiful day. Cool and dry. Flew in for business so we didn't get off of the airport. FBO and employees are very courteous and professional. Very clean and two stories high. Wifi, snacks and beverages available. FBO has two busses, golf carts and carts for luggage. There are taxis, lyft, uber and car rentals. Airport is very busy between June and August.

It’s really not great. It looks like a cute airport, until you go past security and realize how few amenities there are. There is a restaurant, but only before security. There is only one small indoor waiting room, and it gets packed. There is also a tent outside, but it doesn’t have much seating, and a very overpriced concession stand. I understand that it’s a small space that cannot expand, but I think they used the space poorly.

I had the pleasure of visiting this airport one time. It is such a beautiful place and a moment and time I’ll never forget! They say Virginia is for lovers… but I’ll have to say Nantucket is for lovers. I felt the romance in the air as soon as I got off the plane. And I got my first engine photo here! Some say California dreaming…. Well I’m Nantucket dreaming! #takemeback #nostalgia

The new arrival pickup rules are atrocious and flat out dangerous. Passengers have to lug their bags across the drive thru lanes into a very busy parking lot where there is no place provided to stand and wait for your pickup. Given all the sophistication and quality of the airport, the new arrival rules are mind boggling.

I had a terrible experience here. Brought my daughter to the airport for her flight home. She checked in the night before online and had one piece of luggage to tag and drop off at the counter. We were there an hour before her flight, which was delayed, and they would NOT take her bag. Other bags for her flight were right there behind the counter and had not yet been loaded on the belt to go outside. We were told she had to be there 45 mins before the ORIGINAL departure time in order to get a bag tag. Why would anyone go to the airport for the original departure time when the flight was delayed and she was checked in? I spoke with two different people at the counter at American airlines and they absolutely refused to help us. We were told the only way she could take her bag is if she rebooked her flight, which I assume would have involved additional fees, and she was anxious to get home for pets and other reasons so this was not feasible. We said goodbye and she went through security and flew home without her bag. I have traveled all over the world and have NEVER had this issue, ever. Now I have to pay hundreds of dollars to ship her bag across the country. That day her flight was further delayed and left an hour and a half after the original scheduled time. This problem could have been easily solved if the staff at this airport had chosen to be kind and take the damn bag.

Smallest airport that I have been to. Only one security checkpoint. I don't think they have TSA precheck here, but the lines move quickly. You can see the parking lot from the boarding area. It can get super cramped in the small waiting room. They have a car rental nearby and an area for rideshare pickup. The shuttles from town go to and from and it was convenient.

Worst customer service ever at a Delta counter. She showed no care or concern for our situation. Everytime we asked a question she had an attitude and was unhelpful. When our interaction was over she did not say have a good day or sorry about the inconvenience it was just "great byyeee" and she walked away.

Best way to get to the Cape for a beach day!! Fly to PVC! Friendly general aviation airport in the tip of the Cape! Short enough runway that there are no jets, but plenty long enough for Cape Air for regularly scheduled flights to Boston and beyond. Walk over the dune to the beach or bring your bike and ride on the bike trail towards town. The airport is also serviced by regularly schedule busses to get into Town for a couple bucks, and also taxis and rental cars available. Enjoy 5he Cape!!

This airport is tiny and bursting at the seams at high tourists time. TSA definitely screws you around, more than any other airport I've flown. You wait on the tarmac in August under a great white tent with benches, Port o potties, chips, and a large fan. Not impressive 😕.

The people working at the FBO are truly fantastic! I called in with a super odd request, but the person their was committed to helping me. Even though it took a couple days to get the right answer, she still kept me in mind. The airport ops people I met were also both fantastic and very hospitable. As someone who works in airport ops myself, I can safely say these employees set a gold standard for customer service and MVY is lucky to have them.

JetBlue nightmare… they changed flight time with such short notice that over 20 people lost their flight. Three babies and one toddler were left behind with their families and friends with no support or understanding by the JetBlue staff. No accommodation was offered when a night here can be around $700 per room easily. Flight got delayed from 4.57pm to 7.50pm. We were told at 3pm so we decided to stay in Edgartown with our little 2 year old and 91 year old great grandmother and changed our taxi booking. Then we suddenly got an email update at 5pm saying to be in the airport by 5.20 because flight departure had changed to 5.50. We rushed into the first taxi we found and while the airplane was still on the ground they decided to leave the 20 passengers behind (small babies and elderly included). We were not the only ones and it was very poorly handled by the elder lady working at JetBlue that day. I would not recommend this airline or airport destination if you not ready to either stay in the airport for long hours until they get organized with their timelines or miss a flight and deal with all the stress that creates. The staff will treat you like it’s your fault when the reality is that they DO NOT COMMUNICATE effectively and leave customers behind. If you have your own private jet I guess it’s best ;)

If you want your belongings destroyed and to be treated like you’re the problem, this airport security is perfect for you. On 9/24 at 9:30am, the girl at the checkpoint managed to combine arrogance, ignorance, and carelessness all at once. I told her clearly that Polaroid photos cannot go through the scanner. She pretended not to understand, pointed at a box as if it was a safe option, and then sent them straight through the machine, instantly ruining $100 worth of photos.

Way too small of an airport for the amount of travelers. Getting through security even with precheck takes forever. Then you encounter an outside tent for the gate with all airlines forcing their passengers through it. Could not understand anything over the PA system. I felt like I was in a foreign country.

Cape Cod Gateway Airport

Regional airport
Airport
Cape Cod Gateway Airport, also known as HYA, is nestled in the bustling commercial hub of Hyannis, which serves as a gateway to the picturesque Cape Cod region. This charming airport offers a refreshing alternative to the chaos of larger airports found in major cities like New York. With its clean and quiet atmosphere, travelers can enjoy a more relaxed experience while waiting for their flights. During my visit, I was pleasantly surprised by how uncrowded it felt—almost like having your own private terminal!
How much do I love a teeny tiny airport! The Uber driver said you can get here 10 min B4 your flight and still get on. Ok I don't believe that since they do close the door and 8f you have to check luggage you still need to leave a tiny bit of time for that BUT that being said everything took about 8 min. Fabulous! And that $73 Jet Blue flight from the Cape to JFK, divine.

What nice airport. Tiny but clean and makes life a lot easier. Just wish that they had a better option for food, unfortunately the place there have very basic stuff and they don't even look fresh. But still a very convenient location,nice staff and fast TSA screening.

Simple, clean and during my visit, almost empty! So vastly different from the insanity of the major airports I've spent my time in at NYC. A good less busy option if you need to get up to Cape Cod (using a car the rest of the way) if you don't want to chance missing a fast Ferry from Boston to Provincetown. Note: deplaning involved those steep outdoor ramps and walking along the tarmac between cones, likely a challenge for anyone with a wide wheelchair, otherwise okay and pretty accessible.

Plymouth Municipal Airport

Airport
Plymouth Municipal Airport, often referred to as PYM, is a charming little airport primarily catering to private flights and routes heading towards Cape Cod. One of its standout features is a delightful café located right on the tarmac, where visitors can enjoy delicious breakfast or lunch while watching planes take off and land—a perfect spot for families, especially those with toddlers who are fascinated by aviation. The airfield itself is well-kept, boasting a new operations building that enhances the overall experience.
