Living in East Coast I miss sunset on Water. Thanks to google Map I found some amazing places - this post is about one of those.
I have been to Old Silver Beach in Falmouth couple of times but never for Sunset. Last time we were there I noticed the sky , It was so dramatic. After a whole day at the beach I couldn’t stay for Sunset bu that image was stick in my mind. 5 PM drama was just a glimpse of beginning of sunset.
Yesterday we left home ( Franklin) around 3.30 and were there in little over one hour.
Things to remember -
Many restaurants in the area are closed on Monday
The parking attendant leaves around 4 so you get free parking after 4 PM
otherwise it is $20
The resident sticker lot is sandy and the non resident area is full of pebbles ( around 6 ft) then its all sandy
we parked in the resident lot this time. Knew from last trip about Non resident lot.
the Water is really warm and its a shallow beach. You can go very far in the water without worry.
The Sunset was amazing even with the cloudy sky.
a long sand area for kids to play, I saw lot of young families.
if you drive from Franklin, just grab your dinner and spend couple of hours. hour drive back home too.
