I lost my dad 7 years ago but as I was standing on the pier I could hear him yelling at me as if I were purposely catching puffer fish that he had to fight off the hook. Yes, I admit to getting teary eyed with nostalgia. It is a really cute beach with a nice jetty. The pier is great for high tide fishing and low tide viewing. The water is super clear with no snags or rocks to catch your line.

If I am to rate this beach it's simple, out of all the open ocean facing South Yarmouth beaches…read morethis is the one as a child I called the new beach because it was created last on this strip of beaches roughly a mile or so long. It sits at the opposite end from the free "first" beach and in between is what we always called the "swing" beach for obvious reason. This beach sits next to the Smugglers Beach motel which I think was changed to condos many years ago. The beach has a large boat ramp for launching boats and the ramp used to be free but now the town charges to launch. The beach itself also charges to park. Overall the largest beach and it sits at the mouth of Bass River and has a pier to fish from.

It was about a 20 min walk (or 2 minute drive) from our cottage and free to get on to, which is unheard of in Jersey! You do have to pay for parking ($30 on weekends and $20 on weekdays) so that, plus the walk being the only form of exercise we all got for 7 days straight, was all the motivation we needed for skipping the car. The water was nearly dead still all week, no garbage anywhere and lifeguards were on duty most of the time. They made sure to clear the water when any sign of a storm was coming in and left us alone the rest of the time. One of my friends was terrified of sharks so she was a beach bum the whole time while me and my other friend would hang out in the water at least half the day. Sure, it was cold, but it was also SO hot on the sand, so super cold water was welcomed. I loved loved loved how not crowded this beach was. Again, coming from Jersey beaches, it's unheard of!! But we had so much room from other people and never felt like we were too close. A great place for a beach day (or week)!

He had invited friends and family down, we had discussed it and felt safe and comfortable with going. I rarely go to the beach, my fair skin, even with all the sunblock, ends up burning. However I try to go at least once a year for a swim, be it the ocean or a lake. The water, super refreshing on a hot summer day! Being about 60-something degrees, it was a shock at first, but then easily adapted to the temperature. The water was opaque from the seaweed being agitated, it was nice how deep the water got. However, 'Jaws' scared the crap out of me as a kid so I felt a little uneasy since it is not a harbor or bay, but just jutting along the open ocean on the outside portion of the Cape. So being in water where the seafloor drops off, in opaque water, made me a little anxious. The only good thing is knowing there are no seals nearby (sharks are attracted to areas with them, and attacks happen in less then 3 feet of water). Oh did I mention a tip is to not swim in murky water? Anyways, now that I have you paranoid about swimming here, the beach is beautiful and plenty of open space, and life gaurds are present.

Parker's River Beach is a cute family beach and a nice place to spend a few hours…read more You'll have to get a day pass for parking until 4 PM. The day pass also gives you access to other nearby Yarmouth beaches. They also host concerts some evenings so there's more going on than just the beach. One thing that really makes this beach unique is the number of seashells. There are thousands of them. If you enjoy collecting shells or just looking for unique ones, you'll have a great time. My son absolutely loved it. We visited in July and there was quite a bit of seaweed in the water so it wasn't the clearest beach. If crystal clear water is what you're after, there are probably better options nearby. That said, we still had a lot of fun collecting shells, building sand structures, and just enjoying the beach. There is also a small concession stand and an outdoor shower to rinse off before heading home.

I was thinking the typical pizza shops, arcades, and ice cream shops along the beach and sitting in the sand to watch sunset (that's how our boardwalks are like down by the Jersey shore). I was pleasantly surprised that it was a single boardwalk that led to a spot with benches to watch the sunset. It held such a peaceful vibe that even when talking to my partner, I tried my best to whisper to maintain that peaceful atmosphere. I loved all the nature that you are able to witness here -- the long stretches of sand, the marshlands and the osprey nest, and the Cape Cod bay out ahead. I truly enjoyed this hidden gem, and I highly recommend it for watching sunset if you're in the area :) reminder that it is an environmentally sensitive area, so do treat the area with respect and keep its cleanliness (take any trash back with you if you have any!)

The windmill is open for tours a few days a week, limited hours, summer only. Weather permitting. Free parking for maybe a dozen cars. The beach is really tiny. Maybe a dozen chairs would fit?

Tiny little beach area, but good enough, free parking, swingset and the cleanest portapotty I have ever seen. My toddler was happy! We would definitely return to this location.
