Kalmus beach was a nice quiet beach. We enjoyed the boats that passed by including the ferries to the islands. The beach was clean and very easy to access.

We enjoyed the 2 different sections--1 very long with some small waves and the other with no waves and boats to look at. Kids enjoyed walking on jetty separating the 2 areas.

This picture is from the adjacent private beach. It's small with ample room to swim and during times when the wind has picked up, there are a large number of people "playing" to watch - kiteboarders, para surfers, and kite surfers and more. Pure entertainment! And the number of sea shells to gather after a storm is infinite!

We stayed on the cape before Memorial Day so parking was free, and the beach was super calm and quiet. Again, we were there before memorial weekend so not as many people on the cape but still, best beach and only 15-20 min away from the house!

Kalmus is a great beach to go to! It has a great snack bar & bath houses, plenty of parking & both calm & wavy water to enjoy. We love to walk the jetty & wave to the ferries going by.

We like to go to the bay side of Kalmus beach as it is perfect for toddlers and little people. And the snack bar is an added benefit !
