A visit to Cape Cod National Seashore almost always includes a day at the beach, relaxing as the sounds of the ocean surround you.

I love the Cape cod national seashore and the fact that I've been coming here for close to 50 years and nothing changes. Everything from Provincetown to Hyannis remains genuine New England. All those fast food and hamburger places stay on the mainland where they belong. Herring cove Beach is without a doubt the most beautiful and interesting beach I have seen in my life.
My family and I visited the Cape Cod National Seashore last weekend and had a wonderful time. The park is a beautiful place to enjoy nature and relax. We brought our dog with us, and he had a blast running on the beach, digging in the sand, and chasing the waves. He was very well-behaved, and we made sure to follow the park rules for pets.
We also saw some fantastic wildlife at the seashore. We spotted several harbor seals swimming in the water near the shore. They were so cute and playful, and we could hear them making noises. We learned that harbor seals are one of the most common marine mammals in Cape Cod and can grow up to six feet long and weigh up to 300 pounds. We also saw some birds, such as gulls, terns, and cormorants, flying overhead or resting on the rocks.
The weather was overcast that day, but it did not ruin our mood. The temperature was comfortable, and the breeze was refreshing. We did not mind the clouds because they made the scenery more dramatic and mysterious. We photographed the ocean, the dunes, and the lighthouse. The colors were stunning, and we captured some beautiful moments.
We had a great time at the Cape Cod National Seashore and highly recommended it to anyone who loves nature, history, and adventure. It is a place to escape everyday stress and reconnect with yourself and your loved ones. We will come back again soon.
Beautiful beach. The waves are incredible. Sand is nice. You could walk for miles. Parking at certain areas with shuttle access to beach boardwalk. Dogs are allowed on leash or otherwise off lease past sign north of life guard section on coast guard each. Great view of seals swimming off shore
I had an incredible time at Cape Cod National Seashore, truly a gem of the Massachusetts area. This place offers the perfect blend of relaxation and excitement. From fishing adventures to vibrant nightlife with numerous bars and an abundance of delicious seafood options, it was a memorable experience. I did miss out on a ferry ride and dolphin watching due to not securing tickets in advance, but that's a lesson learned for my next visit. If you're in the Boston area, the drive isn't too far, making it an ideal weekend getaway destination. I can't wait to return and explore more!
