Latest reviews on West Harwich's beaches

Sesuit beach
10 Gavin Stone

The beach, located right by the jetty and harbor, is absolutely stunning.

South Middle Beach
10 Nolan Granger

This is my absolute favorite beach in South Yarmouth! You can either bike or park with a permit on Judan Way or at the Town Lot across the street. There's a nice, clean bathroom right in front, but unfortunately no showers. The town has made the first 20 yards from the street onto the beach very walkable. The sand has a pleasingly coarse texture and the ocean is usually free of seaweed, calm, and warmed by the Gulf Stream. There's no need to worry about sharks. You'll see plenty of horseshoe crabs, pipers, plovers, seagulls, and on colder days, jellyfish move towards the shore. This is a great beach for walking- head towards Parker River or Smugglers Beach. Snorkeling is excellent and floats are allowed. There's one lifeguard on duty and a roaming presence from the ToY/Coast Guard.
