Kalmas Park Beach

This beach had soft sand. It has some rocks, shells and is warm water. I am a beach addict and this was a good spot to go. Just to point out there is a swimming part of the beach and a non swimming part. I first jump in the non swimming part and got told by a life guard where to swim.

One of my most favorite beach's on the Mid Cape. I love to watch the boats come and go. they have great facilities. beach is well kept. I have walked this beach many times.

A nice enough beach, but more rocks and seaweed than some others I’ve visited. There were a lot of water/wind sports happening, so I think it’s more suited for those activities, but maybe I just caught it on a particularly blustery evening. Still, a nice walk, and I was able to handle it in bare feet :)

Expensive $25 dollar entry fee, but if they lowered the price to $15 I'd argue it's worth it if you like seeing wildlife or collecting shells. This beach had by far the most shells of any beach we visited up and down the cape - mostly slipper snail but plenty of scallops, whelks, quahogs, and the occasional shark's eyes. The beach does have a lot of seaweed, but this is because it has a natural grassbed right off shore filled with crabs, horseshoe crabs, and live mollusks, which I suppose is not for everyone but is enjoyable in its own right; I enjoyed finding a large whelk mid-meal and watching the barnacle-encrusted horseshoe crab scuttle between grassbeds. There was a lot of litter further up the dunes and around the parking lot - thankfully not near the water line, but for $25 dollars they definitely owe it to guests to keep this place cleaner. Of note: there are actually two beaches here, since the park is on a small peninsula of its own - one on the ocean side and one on the bayside. The bayside has less seaweed and little to no waves; the oceanside has small waves, grassbeds, and more shells.
