On March 16, 2020 Cape Cod National Seashore closed all public buildings and restrooms in response to the COIVID-19 outbreak. These measures were taken to protect the health of the public and seashore staff. Seashore beaches, trails, and parking lots remain open. The CDC urges citizens to help reduce the spread of COVID-19 by practicing social distancing, including limiting discretionary travel. If you visit Cape Cod National Seashore, be aware that the virus can spread outdoors. Maintain a six foot distance from others. There are no restrooms or trash receptacles. These actions reduce public and staff exposure to illness. Pack out all trash you generate, including food scraps. The availability of public restrooms in nearby towns is limited due to COVID-19. If you encounter our staff working, be aware that they will remain at a distance to reduce exposure risk. Alerts & Conditions - Cape Cod National Seashore (U.S. National Park Service)
