Really beautiful, serene Cape Cod beach. It is secluded from the main road. Beautiful weather in May before the official season starts and things get busy. Parking was simple and abundant (again, before the June summer season) and an easy, accessible walk to the beach. There are changing rooms and portable toilets near the parking lot. It's connected to Mashpee Town Beach (also nice) but the parking situation is different there. I wasn't prepared for all the seaweed and swarming mosquitoes, however. Could have just been that particular day/time. Definitely worth a visit. And yes, as many say, you can absolutely see Martha's Vineyard as clear as day.

One of my favorite beaches of all time! The sand is soft with plenty of seashells to examine, the water can be warm and once you go past the row of seaweed very enjoyable! The beach at high tide is small so get here early. There is a lot for parking with a fee, free for handicap parking, walk down a path through the dunes to get to the beach. Enjoy!

Went here for a night walk, which I’m not even sure is actually allowed, but even at night this beach is fantastic. When the tide isn’t drastically high the slope isn’t too bad and the dry area is fairly wide so you have a good bit to choose from. You can easily see Martha’s Vineyard from the shore and the water is balmy.

Amazing beach off the beaten track. If you are looking for some quiet pristine beach time away from the Cap Cod traffic... this is your spot! A great natural beach to spend an afternoon with friends and family! Facilities were flooded when we went, but it was to be expected given there was very heavy rain in the morning.

Omg 😲, awesome. You can pay parking lot hourly, also you can reserve a day pass online . Plate out state is $40 a day , Massachusetts residents $12. Water was delicious warm . There is no life guard , so is on your own risk. There is changing rooms and restrooms (portable) .

Not easy to get to or find. South cape beach park is only 15 a day to park. Water is warm and there's lots of parking. A real Cape Cod hidden gem. Right across from Martha's vineyard, across the sound. Some good fishing off the beach too. Blues and stripers if your lucky
