Description: Corn Hill is a secluded and peaceful beach, ideal for families. This is a long, narrow stretch of sand. Swimming is a popular pastime in its warm Cape Cod Bay water. Beachgoers can also explore ocean inlets flowing behind the shoreline for marine life. Historically, a cache of Native American corn was stored here that the starving Pilgrims "borrowed" after landing in nearby Provincetown. Access is provided by a long stairway spanning low-lying dunes. Parking requires a daily fee.
