Skaket Beach Details
You'll find playing on the tidal flats at Skaket Beach a fun way to spend a day for children of all ages; splash in the shallow water, build sandcastles to defend against the rising tide, or rescue small fish trapped in shrinking tidal pools. The waters of Cape Cod Bay are warm and inviting in summer, making Skaket a popular alternative to the crowds at Nauset Beach, and you can drop by in the late afternoon to enjoy the pretty sunsets. Facilities include a concession stand, restrooms, and outdoor showers; the beach is handicapped accessible, and lifeguards patrol in season.
