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.

A Sandwich beach pass or daily fee is required to park at all Sandwich beaches between the hours of 9am – 5pm from Memorial Day until Labor Day, with the exception of Scusset Beach (fee required May 14th through October 30th). Parking is free all other times.

Resident passes are valid at all Sandwich beaches with the exception of Scusset Beach. Resident passes are also valid for Sandy Neck Beach in Barnstable. Non-resident passes are not valid for Scusset Beach, Wakeby Lake at Ryder Conservation, Snake Pond Beach, Peter’s Pond at Oakcrest Cove or Sandy Neck Beach.
