Beach lovers who long for a summer trip flock to Cape Cod. This peninsula is known for its many gorgeous beaches, such as Craigville Beach in Centerville and Marconi Beach in Wellfleet. Craigville Beach is popular with young people because of its wide area and smooth sand. It’s also frequented by kitesurfers because of its regular winds, so you’ll spot many bright sails in the skies when you visit. At Marconi Beach, your jaw will drop at the sight of soaring cliffs. What makes this place stand out is how its sand takes on various colors that blend. Are you planning a seaside vacation soon? Read on for the top beachfront cottages in Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
