Bay / Sound
Lieutenant Island Beach
Free parkingDogs: allowed (leashed)
Tidal flat beach accessible by causeway at low tide, offering vast sandbars and calm warm water on Wellfleet Harbor. The island becomes accessible for several hours around low tide, revealing extensive tidal flats ideal for exploring. Families with young children love the shallow, warm water. Check tide charts before visiting — the causeway floods at high tide.

Harbor
Wellfleet Town Pier Beach
Free parkingDogs: allowed (leashed)
Small harbor beach adjacent to Wellfleet's working fishing pier and marina. A quiet spot to watch oyster boats and fishing vessels come and go. The protected harbor water is calm and great for young children to splash around. The surrounding area has a charming working-waterfront atmosphere.

Marconi Beach
Sticker or daily feeDogs: not allowed
A dramatic Atlantic Ocean beach within Cape Cod National Seashore, named for the nearby Marconi Wireless Station site where the first U.S.-to-England transatlantic message was sent in 1903. Backed by a roughly 40-foot sand cliff, it offers open Atlantic surf, a seasonal bathhouse with restrooms and rinse-off showers, and lifeguards on duty from late June through Labor Day. Strong surf and currents; swim near the lifeguard stand.

White Crest Beach
Sticker or daily feeDogs: off-season only
White Crest Beach is one of the Outer Cape's most dramatic Atlantic-side beaches, with towering white sand bluffs rising sharply above the shoreline and a powerful east-facing surf break that reliably draws surfers and bodyboarders season after season. A surf school operates seasonally from the parking area, making it a good launching point for beginners willing to take on real ocean waves. No lifeguard on duty; experienced ocean swimmers only.

Cahoon Hollow Beach
Sticker or daily feeDogs: off-season only
Cahoon Hollow Beach is Wellfleet's social epicenter on the Atlantic side, home to The Beachcomber — a legendary open-air bar and restaurant perched atop the bluffs that has made the post-surf tradition here as much a Cape rite of passage as the beach itself. The ocean beach is classic Outer Cape: wide, east-facing for sunrise, backed by dramatic sand cliffs, and breaking with powerful surf that rewards experienced swimmers. Arrive early on summer days — the lot fills fast once The Beachcomber opens.

Newcomb Hollow Beach
Sticker or daily feeDogs: off-season only
Newcomb Hollow is the most open and remote-feeling of Wellfleet's Atlantic-side beaches, with a broad uninterrupted strand that stretches in both directions and fewer amenities than neighboring Cahoon Hollow — which translates to fewer crowds and more room to breathe even on busy weekends. The east-facing exposure delivers picture-perfect sunrises, and the powerful Atlantic surf produces excellent wave action for surfers and experienced ocean swimmers. The surf's edge at dawn is also prime surfcasting territory.
