Sandy Neck beach
8 Adam Richards.

This beach is top-notch, with serene surroundings and stunning views, particularly at low tide. Don't forget to pack some insect repellent to deter the occasional horsefly.

Old Silver Beach
8 Ethan Sinclair

This beach is an ideal spot for families with children. The parking area is spacious, and the beach is not too crowded, providing a relaxed atmosphere. The restrooms are clean and well-maintained, and the snack bar offers a decent selection of refreshments. Although it may not be the most extensive or finest beach on the Cape, it still ticks all the essential boxes for a successful day out. I will undoubtedly return to this charming location. Additionally, the low tide reveals beautiful tidal pools and sandbars, providing a stunning backdrop for photos.

Onset Beach

Scusset beach

There are ample parking opportunities available throughout the year, even during off-season periods. The fishing experience at the beach is exceptional, although the bites may not be as frequent as one would hope.

Sandwich beach

This place is terrible. The bouncer only wants you to purchase their beer online, and they make it difficult to have a conversation about beer or make a purchase. I've never had such a negative experience at a brewery before. It got to the point where I gave up and exchanged my tickets for some to-go drinks. Despite having enjoyed their beers in the past, I was excited to visit the brewery and buy directly from them. However, the whole process was a headache, the staff was rude, and the interior was freezing. Nobody seemed interested in helping me buy beer; they just insisted on buying it online. I thought I might be the only one feeling this way until I witnessed the same interaction happen to someone else right after me. The bouncer seemed annoyed by any attempt to ask questions about purchasing their product. On a positive note, the interior reminded me of a scene from the movie Burnt, where Bradley Cooper compared a restaurant's interior to a theme of stoning infidels. It strangely fit well with this place. I don't have any issues with the beer itself, but this place is just awful.

This is a lovely spot with a stunning sunset. However, the parking lot is quite small and tends to fill up quickly. I noticed that during the day, there is a fee for parking. While there aren't many sea shells, there are plenty of unique rocks and quartz along the shoreline. Additionally, there is hardly any seaweed to be found.
