    Like the other reviewers, I'm hesitant to share the secret of Crowes... but if you can find it, and make it out there - then you deserve to check out this piece of heaven. Crowes is a unique beach as it is on quivet neck, so it gets super low tides with amazing, neverending flats you can drive/walk out to for ever. High tide is not as fun on the beach side bc of sea grass, but it's the best for the creek side - best swimming in the cape, maybe anywhere in the world. People park right along the creek and set up shop, it's the perfect all day spot. You can bring boats in the creek at high tide, and even cruise down the neck pretty far. The swimming in the creek is liquid peace and happiness. We have permits and are able to drive out to the beach, flats and creek. It's the only way to go! You can, however, access a part of crowes beach without 4x4/permit, just drive down and park in the wooded area and walk out.

    Crowds are minimal as it's resident only and primarily a 4x4 beach, but you can still enjoy the place without...do yourself a favor and walk to the creek! Dog friendly at low tide, be careful otherwise between high tide and plover restrictions - they will ticket you!

    I almost don't want to write a review for this beach because even on it's most crowded days there aren't THAT many people and I don't want people reading my positive review and giving it a shot! selfish, you bet, but the other good beaches are overwhelmingly packed! this is my favorite beach; crazy low tides so you can hang out on the flats, not a lot of seaweed(that's huge for me) and most importantly it's dog friendly. you really need an off road sticker so unless you're a Dennis resident you have to shell out $200 for a sticker, but I'd call it $200 well spent.

    The best beach we've found in Cape Cod. The reason? All year round dog friendly beach, the beach of which at low tide extends for what must be a mile out.

    People bring their 4x4s here and park and play (but not many of them). Get to South Street off 6A, and then drive, drive, drive to the end of South Street (it's bumpy and gravely and a fun ride) where we can park in a nestle of trees. From there it's a quick hop over the dunes via the path, and endless splashing and playing await.

    Check the tide times for Barnstable harbour, and head on down for low tide! There's even some rocks to play around on if you do hit high tide....
