Marconi Beach
Cape Cod Beaches

We drove back out to Hwy. 6 and took pictures of restaurants along the highway.

Then we ran into a Marconi Area, and followed the road to Marconi Beach, but was greeted by a ranger that wanted $15 to get into the Marconi Beach area.

We quickly turned around and went back out, turning down the road that said Marconi Station.

We followed it and passed the National Seashore Headquarters, and then wound up at a spot called Marconi Station.

Marconi site

It had restrooms, scenic views for pictures and parking, and it is free. We parked and took a stroll and saw observation decks and a path to a beach.

So this is good. If you don't want to go to a beach, but just get some scenic views, here ya go. As it turns out this is where Marconi sent the first transatlantic telegraph. Wow.
