But if you are living or visiting nearby and can walk over to a tiny but great space for families to play on a beach with an old fashion Cape Cod feel, do it. Especially if you are part of the scientist community, whether world renowned or just a student. You might even run into people you know from the labs. Little kids love it and can build sand piles forever. I can't even begin to count how many times I have been here over a time span of 37 years. There's a lifeguard in summer season and a porta-potty. That's it, though I think an ice cream truck sometimes visits on great beach days.

I rented one of their 15 Ft sail boats here and took it out with my Girlfriend and we went right out and sailed the entire lagoon over the course of about 1.5 hours. The boat was in good shape and handled in the water well. The sail was in great shape too. The prices are very affordable and it took literally no time to get out on the water, they rig for you and send you off. The sailboats would fit 4 adults comfortably and the views in the lagoon are fantastic. Highly recommend this if you are in MV for any amount of time. I noticed they have good kayaks and other adventure options as well. 5 stars, thanks Winds Up !

We took a daytrip from Boston on the HyLine high speed ferries, and this was a great place to enjoy the ocean without having to take transportation. There is a way to directly access the beach from the pier, cutting your way through a broken wall. But the easier (proper) way is to take the stairs from the overlooking bluff further east. There is a large lifeguard tower, though there was nobody at the beach or in the tower when we got there on a Friday afternoon. It was a rainy day, so even with the high temperaturs (upper 80's), nobody was there until school let out and a group of school kids camped out to enjoy the weather.
