With a lagoon side and an ocean side Woodneck Beach has something for everyone. Looking for crabs, wading, boogie boarding, and swimming are all popular activities.
DOG FRIENDLY BEACH (off to far right of the beach, dogs are welcomed.) Very nice at sunset and low tide!!Water is COLD, though!!!

Beautiful open beach with a fun tidal pool and a gentle current that’s fun for kids and adults! Please keep in mind you may need to purchase a beach pass in advance to visit the beach.

Beautiful tidal pools and sandbars at low tide. Wonderful for younger kids as well as older kids as we were able to walk very far from the coast in waist deep water. Tons of seashells and crabs and minnows. Excellent! Also enjoyed coastguard beach and enjoying the sights of the seals.

Beautiful beach! Excellent area for small children to explore shallow waters for crabs, starfish etc..Also ocean side available for older children and adults. Best of both!

Wood Neck Beach is right around the corner and great for the young kids as the tide goes out and offers plenty of activities for them in tidal pools to catch small fish, collect sea shells, and build sand castles without the parents having to worry that they were going to wander off into deep water

About a 5min walk from the home, an actual lazy river forms as the tide comes in and out. PERFECT for the kids. The stretch of private beach that's a 1min walk from the home is great too, especially for cocktails as the sun goes down.

Great beach especially with children. There is basically a lazy river that pushes you into the wetlands. We enjoyed an afternoon of swimming, crab hunting, seashell gathering and sea glass collecting. We witnessed a great sunset too! Just be sure to bring bug spray.... when the sun goes down the bugs come out.

Favorite and a recent discovery is Wood Neck Beach. It is a short drive north but worth it. Sandy and lovely. We also enjoyed Stony Beach if you need a short walk from the house [Woods Hole Vacation Rental ID 25679]

Wood Neck beach is my favorite beach in Falmouth. It is not very crowed and there is a beautiful view. It is rocky but if you have water shoes it is fine.

Wood Neck beach was a short drive and we were able to park there since they were not checking for Residence stickers yet. We loved the inlet size for both swimming, snorkeling, and finding shells and creatures with the grand kids. Go as the tide is coming in and enjoy a boogie board ride on the inlet entrance as the water rushes in. Would recommend wearing water shoes or toe covered sandals as it is rocky with lots of sharp shells.
