I grew up on Cape Cod And Craigville Beach has always been a really popular beach. The water is nice, not too much seaweed, not rocky, has small waves. There's a beach house that was clean. There's a snack bar directly across the street from the beach house. Plenty of parking and plenty of room on the beach .

Great beach for young kids. Only waves are from the boats going in and out of the harbor. High tide is great for a swim, with low tide exposing grassy areas and a large expanse for kids to explore the aquatic life. Great sunset view.

Tiny and quaint. Beautiful views of harbor, Sand Neck Lighthouse and sunset! Osterville 2 is right by the beach. Grab a lobster roll and watch the sunset!

The beach changes with the tides which is lovely to watch but make sure you test the current before going too far out swimming, as it gets quite strong at times.
