Review & FAQ:

Coast Guard Beach is a surfing and boogie boarding destination that is one of five beaches sitting on the ocean side of the Cape included in the Cape Cod National Seashore. Its low tide creates a flat surface that is perfect for skimboarding. The outer beach that is locally referred to as the "backside" of Cape Cod is a watery cemetery for about 3,000 ships. There is no parking between mid-June to Labor Day except for park staff and disabled persons, with a shuttle bus giving access from Little Creek. Restrooms are open on a seasonal basis, and there is wheelchair access to the beach.
