Truro, Wellfleet,Ptwn beaches are the "long walk" beaches and not many IF any people.Play the wind direction& stage of the tide 1st.Wellfleet,the walk out to Great I. is a loop along the[bayside] beach and back through woods.2nd Truro,High Head[Oceanside]go out the orv[closed] access trail on foot.Go left and walk for miles if you want and probably not see anyone.Great beach combing at low tides.Never know what you'll find especially after a storm.That really goes for any of the East facing beaches.Going on a dropping tide gives you choice of hard sand/soft sand and time to get back depending on beach cuts that may exist.I always carried a small pack with a snack,water,fruit,and good knife to cut rope.Ptwn, Herring cove beach park in the left lot and walk left this is a great walk out to Wood End light and Long Point light.Bring the pack here too.Herring cove right lot park at the far end and walk to Hatches harbor.Great low tide hunting in the marsh.Race point,go left and walk the beach out to Race point light and take the jeep trail back.Wear good shoes every where.In Orleans,Land Ho,Yardarm for food.The Homeport for breakfast.In Chatham, The Squire in town is good food and bar.The Red Nun too[if it's open.1St Night in Chatham is a good time too.Wellfleet,The French bakery,Bounungre[spelling] on the corner of rt6 and Lecounts Hollow rd. is awesome pastries and breads.Dinner is high end but good too.Check to see if it's open.In Eastham,the Hole in One on rte6 serves breakfast,coffe shop, and dinner.Accross the road is the Red Barn for pizza,subs,etc. Good.Ptwn,just walk down Comical[commercial] st. too many to mention.Spent almost 3 decades there.I miss those big beaches very much.
