It's a pretty quiet beach for the most part -- not too many people to be found. We found ourselves spending quite a bit time of here, in the early-late evening, and also in the morning. Let me say, the sky was beautiful, and nothing gets better than that. I noticed a couple of rock walls, at least at this location, and more going in each direction. Take caution, and don't get hurt. Enjoy and take every moment in. There is no lifeguard on duty at Sagamore Beach.

Perfect beach not overly crowded and easy to park on the street and lots of good food around .read more

Cute beach on Buzzards Bay…read more First time in my life I have ever seen the sand being groomed. So nice for walking barefoot Parking is pretty cheap. Only $2 per hour if you don't have a resident permit. Be aware that the parking kiosks only take credit cards or coins. Dollar bills are not accepted. Since you are on the bay, little to no waves. Water is pretty shallow quite a ways out.

I live in MA and drove 1 hour to Scusset Beach during the 2nd week of July, 2026. The weather was…read moreperfect - perfect for a beach day : hot, sunny, clear blue sky. The beach itself was nice enough: decent sand, not rocky, not an over abundance of seaweed. That's where the enjoyment ended. That beach had a constant barrage of biting flies that annoy the crap out of you. They are small, relentless,painfully bite, and leave itchy marks where they bite. We stayed for 3 hours to try to get our $14 (parking fee) worth but after that, we left. I'll never go back since I now know those biting flies are an issue there and have been for years. Two thumbs down and I cannot recommend Scusset Beach to any beach goer who wishes to have a lovely day at the beach. Side note : the water was so cold also, with zero waves and contained floating seaweed. Terrible.

Cohasset Narrows bridge is fixed and low, so no masted vessels. Nice for swimming, shellfishing, shore fishing (striper/schoolies), kayaking,jestskiing,SUP and just messing about. Fresh water Red Brook empties into this bay after flowing some 5 miles from White Island Pond in Plymouth. This brook and surroundings are owned by the Trustees of Reservations and is home to the only remaining Sea Run Brook Trout spawning areas in the Northeast. Public beaches at Electric Ave in Bourne (resident permit required) and at Lyman Reserve in Bourne. No public beaches on Wareham side. Pretty muddy at low tide so plan swimming accordingly. My favorite place to swim is the channel between Buttermilk and Little Buttermilk (Gibbs Narrows). Crystal clear and the current will give you a Nantucket sleigh ride when tide is changing.

Came out from Cambridge today looking to get some nature and perhaps see some wildlife. Took the shore path toward the bay and upon turning the corner towards the bay there was a women spread eagle while her male companion head was blissfully between her legs.

We recently stayed at Myles Standish State Forest on site J26 in the Barretts Pond loop, and…read moreunfortunately, it wasn't quite what we expected. The site itself is situated at the top of a steep hill, which is not ideal if you have a car that sits low to the ground, our vehicle bottomed out trying to park, making it basically unusable for us in that spot. To make matters worse, the path to the site doubles as an access point to another campsite. So even if you could manage to park there, chances are high that your neighbors will end up parking in that same pathway, making it extremely difficult--if not impossible--for you to get to your site conveniently. It definitely felt like the layout of this area wasn't thought through for ease of access. The bathrooms in this loop left a lot to be desired. During our stay, they were extremely dirty and, at one point, there were a few hours without water or electricity. That said, there were a few positives. The small swimming pond in this section of the campground was actually quite charming. It's private to those staying at the loop, which makes it feel peaceful and far less crowded compared to other parts of the forest that have public access. It was nice to be able to relax there without the usual campground chaos. Overall, the serenity of the area was nice, but the site setup, parking issues, and bathroom conditions really took away from the experience. If you're considering this loop, especially site J26, I'd recommend looking into alternative spots within the forest that might be easier to access and are better maintained. I've been coming here for years and have had many experiences both good and bad. Check-in can take awhile, and lines can get long which is brutal in the heat, then your met with some people at the counters with attitudes that leave more to be desired. I'm sure there are better places to camp, but it is a staple.

The camping sites are deep in the forest, in fact it's bout 5 miles from the entrance to camping sites. Roads are paved and my own problem is having to constantly contend with bicyclists. (Read up on MA state law regarding bicyclists -- they have more right of way than I thought they did!) Be cautious of Masac. I saw the signs and didn't know what it was until I stumbled across the building one day. Yes, there is a prison facility in these woods!! Maybe that's why they have state park rangers at each camping "gate", and I fully appreciate that!
