Nauset Beach South remains open for now, but please be advised:
Due to nesting shorebirds, the area may close at any time without notice if unfledged chicks move into the OSV corridor. Closures are expected and required by state and federal regulations.
Nauset North (Residents) remains closed due to insufficient drivable beach. The good news? It held up well during the last Nor’easter, and we remain hopeful that some access may return as beach conditions improve. Daily monitoring is ongoing.
Please continue to check for updates, and thank you for your understanding as we balance beach access with wildlife protection.
