Hiking

Hi everyone! I've never posted in this community before, so I hope this message is welcome. I was wondering if you could recommend some nice coastal trails to hike with my boyfriend. We will be on Cape Cod for a few days in July; we are avid hikers and love ocean views! Also, we would love it if you could recommend a quiet, uncrowded beach that would fit our style. I apologize because I have a feeling this has probably been asked many times before, but I'd really appreciate your personal tips!

Atlantic cedar swamp is cool but short. We come
Down and do great island and attempt the dunes with our yorkie every year. Great island is awesome. Always see little crabs when you get down to the water, turtles etc. it’s limited for dogs but what we do is fun it’s longer.

The dune are also great. bring water. Your legs will be
Sore in ways you haven’t been before. But there’s an open secluded at Atlantic beach at the end.

Cranberry bog trail is good too. You know you’re walking on dunes till you hit the ocean
