Crowds gather noticeably in the evening, so come early if you want a good spot to watch.
Bring an Eastham beach sticker
Parking requires a town beach sticker; one reviewer mentioned a thirty-dollar parking fee without.
Visit in shoulder season for peace
November and early June offer free or lower-cost parking and virtually empty beaches compared to peak summer crowds.
