CAPE COD NATIONAL SEASHORE

Visitors walking along Race Point Beach in Provincetown

Visitors can enjoy activites on the six ocean beaches managed by the park: Coast Guard Beach, Head of the Meadow Beach, Herring Cove Beach, Marconi Beach, Nauset Light Beach, and Race Point Beach.

These beaches provide important nesting habitat for the federally protected piping plover and other nesting birds. Cape Cod National Seashore represents one of the largest plover nesting beaches in the area and represents 1/5 of the entire population in Massachusetts. Obey posted signs and help us protect these sensitive resources.
