Eastham Beaches

Eastham features some of the most beautiful beaches on Cape Cod. Our ocean beaches sprawl uninterrupted for miles with a playful surf. Enjoy the flats of the bayside beaches that stretch a mile out at low tide exposing a colorful variety of marine life or the fresh water beaches that offer the tranquility of a quiet pond in the forest. The Cape Cod National Seashore Salt Pond Visitor Center is located in the heart of Eastham and offers miles of unspoiled shoreline and beaches, with marshlands and forests like a romantic's dream. Contact the Park for the many activities and programs the Cape Cod National Seashore offers.

Parking fees apply at all beaches during the summer. Parking fees can be paid directly at the gates of Cook's Brook, Campground, First Encounter, Wiley Park, Coast Guard, and Nauset Light beaches. The other beaches listed require purchasing a parking sticker in advance. The town Natural Resources Facility, 555 Old Orchard Road, sells stickers Mon-Sat 9 am - 4 pm, Wed 9 am - 12 pm and at Wiley Park, Herring Brook Road, Sun 9 am - 4 pm.
