tripadvisorI went years ago and it was heavenly beautiful beaches the water was gorgeous but returned last year to find rocks on the entire beach , what happened to the sand and why did they put rocks over the sand ?
MoreGreat place however it has been going downhill. Too many ethnic non Americans leaving trash behind and blasting their horrible foreign music. Very ignorant and unfriendly.
MoreTook a Day trip down to the south coastal areaAfter lunch decided on finding this park. Definitely a GPS type of trip as there are many long and winding roads to get there. The scenery on the way however is really nice with lots of farms, farm stands, estates, and winding paths, roads. Once at the park there is plenty of parking and the restrooms are open again (all state parks had closed restrooms / visitor centers during the pandemic for awhile). Your Mass. Parks parking placard IS VALID here so you won’t have to pay if you have one. The beach is a very short walk from the parking lot, and at first very rocky. There were people WAY out in the water where the waves were crashing so I can then assume as in some of the other reviews that the water is NOT very deep closer to shore. Views from the beach extend even out to the “Elizabeth Islands” and possibly “Martha’s Vineyard” across Buzzards Bay which the beach is on. There are a few short nature trails for those interested in that, but on a clear day the views across the bay are really nice. Drive back to the highways is a bit long but very scenic.
MoreReally a great spot, many people complain about the rocks but they are o ly at the earlier part of entering the water, once a few feet in they disappear. Also (a little secret) if you go further down the beach it was all sand.The other nice thing (especially for the kids) it never gets deep. It starts a low level and builds to a higher level but never overly deep unless you relent all the way into the channel where boats can go. There's a great picnic area and play area for the kids. Also plenty of parking and I'm not sure but there may be a boat ramp.
MoreReally no beach...full of rocks. Make sure to pack your water shoes. Still very beautiful, no crowd, and the water clean and refreshing...spent most of the day floating! No seaweed here.
