Cahoon Hollow Beach: A Hidden Gem on the Outer Cape
Cahoon Hollow Beach is backed by massive sand dunes, giving beachgoers the sensation of discovering a hidden gem. However, it often becomes crowded with visitors eager to experience one of Cape Cod's most renowned shorelines. Located on the Outer Cape, the beach's waves are ideal for surfers and boogie boarders.
Daytime and Nighttime Attractions
The Beachcomber Restaurant
As enjoyable during the night as it is in the daytime, Cahoon Hollow is home to The Beachcomber Restaurant, a quintessential Cape Cod establishment. Situated high on the dunes, the restaurant offers fresh seafood, live music, and a lively evening atmosphere.
Bonfires and Stargazing
Adjacent to Cahoon Hollow is Newcomb Hollow, where bonfires are permitted with a prior permit. This area is also celebrated as one of the best stargazing spots in Massachusetts due to the Outer Cape's dark skies.
Practical Tips for Visiting
Getting There and Parking
During the busy summer months, the parking lot at Cahoon Hollow fills up quickly. Visitors are advised to secure a spot early in the morning. If staying nearby in Wellfleet, biking to the beach is a convenient option.
Accessibility Considerations
Due to the steep sand dunes and the absence of stable walkways, individuals with mobility limitations may find accessing the beach challenging.
