Hiking

It's a long, sandy walk out to the lighthouse, past the stone breakwater. Beautiful spot but despite it's closeness to town it feels like wilderness. In the summer you can hire a water taxi to go out

Running

Long Point Lighthouse is at the very tip of Cape Cod and feels like it is in a world of its own. Not a ton of people make the trek from the mainland across the breakwater all the way to end of Long Point, so you'll likely have the beach and lighthouse to yourself. The trails are sandy and the running is slow, but it's a rewarding and secluded place to knock out a run.
