Review:

This is probably the most famous beach in Hyannis. In fact, it's one of the best-known beaches in the surrounding Barnstable area and even ranks highly in full lists of best Cape Cod beaches. So what makes Kalmus Beach so special? Well, the major appeal of this beach is for windsurfing. The winds can get unusually strong around here, making Kalmus Beach a fun spot for flying kites or playing various beach games. If you're more interested in relaxing and soaking up some sun, the far end of Kalmus Beach is calmer and quieter, better-suited for swimming and sunbathing. Amenities at this Hyannis beach include restrooms, showers, and food vendors.
