Hey there, beach lovers!
If you’re planning a trip to Cape Cod or just want to discover some new spots right in your backyard, you’re in for a treat. I’m talking about the kind of beaches where you can feel the sand between your toes, hear the ocean whispering secrets, and maybe even spot a dolphin if you’re lucky.
Cape Cod isn’t just about any beaches; it’s about the beaches – those perfect stretches of coastline that make you want to stay forever. From hidden coves where you can have a quiet picnic to the lively shores where the whole family can build sandcastles, there’s a spot for everyone.
So, grab your sunscreen, pack a cooler, and let’s check out some of the best public beaches Cape Cod has to offer.
