Check out all the seals in Chatham Harbor by the Fish Pier! A great place to see lots of cool things is up on the observation deck. Parking is in the upper lot and you need to walk down to the pier. There’s a great fresh fish market there too! (I may have jumped off this pier and swam across to Tern Island 20 years ago…but back then we didnt have all these seals!) #chatham #chathamma #chathamconcierge #fishpier #chathamfishpier #seals #capecod

During the summer this place gets busy fast. The parking area is definitely not big enough for the popularity so we specifically go on the off season. If you're not able to wait until less busy times try to remember the first order of business is the fisherman and the seafood industry. Tourists happen to be a sidekick as it was not initially designed as a tourist attraction. However they do have tourists parking, clean flushing bathrooms and a seafood shack where you can get right off the boat fresh lobster rolls and more. There is an observation deck where you can watch first hand the unloading of the fresh catch. But you wont be the only ones, seagulls and harbor seals are bountiful and not shy. Seals will come right up to the boats looking for scraps and seagulls may even sprinkle you with some of their own "scraps" Dont go if you dislike the industrial view of unloading dead seafood onto elevators and loading into freezer bins because you will most likely see this.

If you are looking for authentic and high quality seafood there is not a better place to shop for or dine in than Chatham Pier Fish Market. The fresh seafood is on a display in front of you and you pick Poseidon’s gifts you crave for. There are plenty of choices in fish, shrimps, oysters, clams, lobsters… Very friendly and knowledgeable staff is on hand to help you with your choices. The food is high quality and fresh out of the ocean. I bought a 1.25 lb lobster which came with buttered corn. I also bought blackened cod. Both were served steamy hot. The food is prepared while you wait and the portion size and quality will blow you away. The restaurant gives you plenty of of options for sides as well. The lobster was $25 and the large cod $12. The sides are $3-6. It was an incredible feast steps from the ocean exactly what you would expect from a fish market in Cape Cod. The quality of food, location and service deserve 5 stars.

We came here to see the seals. I don't know what time they usually show up, we got here at sunset. Schools of little fish swarm the pier and jump or flick the surface of the water, sounds like rain. The seals come and go, silently, sometimes you can hear them taking a breath. They lay on their backs and casually float along, sometimes they look up at you standing on the pier. There's a few spots of light peeking out that light them in the water. Not very busy after Labour Day, parking was available. Looking at the satellite view on maps, the right side beach is easy to reach and walk, the left side beach is not supposed to be accessible from the pier area. We asked a guy and he let us in, but all the signs said "no access". Proceed to the left, from the fish market, at your own risk. There were stairs down from the residential areas, but I am thinking that was probably private beach Access.
