Entrance Passes

Standard Entrance Pass

$15.00–$25.00

Entrance fees are only required seasonally at park beaches and are not required in most other parts of the park. Cape Cod National Seashore beach entrance fees are collected daily from late-June through Labor Day, and on weekends and holidays from Memorial Day to mid-September at select beaches. All passes (including the America the Beautiful series) are only sold during the months that the fees are collected. Passes can ONLY be purchased at beach entrances and are NOT sold at park visitor centers. The six national seashore beaches where fees are collected are: Coast Guard and Nauset Light in Eastham, Marconi in Wellfleet, Head of the Meadow in Truro, and Race Point and Herring Cove in Provincetown.

Pass is for one private, non-commercial vehicle — passenger cars, pickup trucks, RVs and vans.
