Sandwich Beaches

Located on the bay side of Cape Cod, Sandwich features a number of relaxing saltwater beaches in addition to freshwater ponds popular among locals. Sandwich also has one of the most affordable season passes on the Cape for non-residents. Sandwich resident passholders get a pretty good deal too, with access to Sandy Neck Beach in Barnstable included as an additional benefit.
