Sandy Neck Beach

Off road access, modern facilities with a snack shack and amazing views of the bay make Sandy Neck Beach one of the more popular Cape Cod destinations. Kids will love exploring the sand bars and collecting rocks and active adults will enjoy the long stretches of beach to walk. The parking lot is relatively small compared to the size of the beach, which helps to alleviate overcrowding. There’s usually enough room to spread out if you don’t mind walking a bit. Older visitors and those with disabilities will appreciate the easy ramp access and beach wheelchairs available in the parking lot.

Sandy Neck is one of a handful of Cape beaches that allow you to drive out on to the beach. An ORV permit from the town is required. For more information visit:
