Though, my daughter didn't like the smell of low tide! They had a cute playground and a pond where you could see tadpoles, frogs, and turtles. Definitely a neat place to walk around.

We came fairly late in the morning around 11 am and yes it was difficult to find a parking spot. We got really, really lucky. We saw a ton of cars driving around the small lot and on the street leading up to the refuge trying to find a spot. If it's peak season, come early! I had no idea what we were in for as far as the view! We usually go to Chatham light every time we come to the Cape, but this is my new favorite! Low tide is a must; I'm not sure it would be anything like it was if it was high tide. The water was just magical, a beautiful shade of teal. I could have sat there and walked along the water for hours. Since the parking is limited the beach portion of the refuge is not crowded at all. Also, when we walked right, there were little starfish everywhere! So beautiful. We are in the Cape for a long weekend from R.I but would totally come back here just for a day trip! Plenty around for lunch or breakfast. Would make for a fun summer day.

Great views! I would definitely visit there again! I go to…read moreCape Cod every year but this was first visit to Monomoy.

This place has been here forever but somehow I've always just gone past it. Since I've been on a…read morewalking kick over the last year, I'm spotting many places that I have zoomed past without ever really "seeing". That's one of the advantages of walking a ton - you slow down and see things that have always been there but you've missed. Part of my intentional consciousness of really viewing my surroundings. The Meadow on The Cove is exactly what it sounds like - a giant meadow of wildflowers overlooking the Orleans Town Cove. Very pretty and worth checking out. Not much to do here but there are two clearings with park benches, so you can sit & rest and reflect or read in peace. There's a small parking area when you first go in (room for 5 cars) but I had the place to myself the entire time I was there. A lace like this is part of the charm of a small town like Orleans. And don't forget the bees! TONS of big, friendly, fuzzy black & yellow Bumble Bees taking full advantage of this massive field of Wildflowers. There's something very zen about watching them make their rounds. (Full disclosure: when I wrote 'black & yellow Bumble Bees' above, it made me think of the metal band Styper! And Michael Sweet, the lead singer of Stryper actually lives on the Cape. Yes, I know I'm a weirdo. But still, Stryper Rocks!)

The path itself is in great condition. It is shaded for almost all of the section we did. The pavement is mostly smooth - any bumps from roots underneath are spray painted yellow so you see they are coming. On the section we rode, the sides are not overgrown so there is room to move over for others passing. Other riders and users were all friendly and respectful- ringing bells or announcing their approach. We rode about 7 miles East from our parking spot, taking a nice break for lunch at Seymour Pond. Some of our party went swimming! We were all thankful for the plentiful bike racks, many benches, and a clean porta-potty. This was definitely a highlight of our time on Cape Cod.
