Herring Cove Beach is a fantastic beach on the west side of P-town. The waters along this beach are calmer in comparison to the larger waves and rougher currents at the nearby Race Point Beach, which is on the Atlantic side. Because it is west facing, Herring Cove Beach is an incredibly popular place to watch the sunset.

Herring Cove Beach is part the National Seashore at Race Point. It is a must-do if you're biking on the Outer Cape with beautiful and varied trails of approximately 8 miles. Also a fantastic place to walk, including on unpaved, sand paths to the lighthouse and other destinations. 5 stars.
