Where to Fish on Cape Cod 

Salt-water fishing map for Cape Cod and the Islands.
While you could probably cast a line in just about any saltwater body on Cape Cod and catch a fish, these are some of the more productive saltwater fishing spots on the Cape.

 

Cape Cod Saltwater Fishing Map
Bay Side Beaches Barnstable Harbor - From Rt. 6A in Barnstable take either Bone Hill Rd. or Mill St.
Chapin Beach - From Rt. 6A in Dennis take New Boston Rd. and follow signs.
Point of Rocks Beach - From Rt. 6A in Brewster take Point of Rocks Rd.
Sandy Neck -  From Rt. 6A in Sandwich take Sandy Neck Rd.
Wellfleet Harbor - From Rt. 6 in Wellfleet take Pilgrim Spring Rd.
Buzzards Bay Old Silver Beach - From Rt. 28A in Falmouth take Curley Blvd. then left on Quaker Rd.
Wings Neck - From Rt. 28A in Bourne take Barlows Landing Rd. to Wing Neck Rd.
Woods Hole - From Rt. 28 in Falmouth take Woods Hole Rd.
Cape Cod Canal   There are fishing areas on both sides of the canal
Mainland Side - Try along Rt. 6 near the herring run.
Cape Side - Take Sandwich Rd. off the Bourne Rotary and look for the many parking areas on the left hand side of the road.
Scusset Beach - From Sagamore Rotary take 3A to Scusset Beach Rd. 
Monomoy Stage Harbor - From Rt. 28 in Chatham take Stage Harbor Rd.
To really fish Monomoy you'll need a boat. A charter or party boat can get you to this extraordinarily productive fishing ground.
National Seashore Coast Guard Beach - From Rt. 6 in Eastham take Doane Rd.
Nauset Beach - From Rt. 28 in Orleans turn East on Main St. veer right onto Pochet Rd.
Pamet Beach - From Rt. 6 take South St. to Pamet Rd.
Race Point - From Rt. 6 in Provincetown take Race Point Rd.
South Side Beaches Craigville Beach - From West Main St. in Hyannis take Old Craigville Rd.
Dowses Beach - From Main St. in Osterville take Wianno Rd.
South Cape Beach - From the Mashpee Rotary take Great Neck Rd. to Great Oak Rd.
West Dennis Beach - From Rt. 28 in West Dennis take School St. to Lighthouse Rd.
Salt-water Rivers Bass River - The Bridge on Rt. 28 on the Yarmouth Dennis line holds many kinds of fish like flounder, scup, and you guessed it .. Bass. At the mouth of the river there is a fishing pier on the Yarmouth side.
Herring River -  The bridges on Rt. 28 and Lower County Rd. in Harwich are a good bet, as well as the jetties at the mouth, next to the 'Belmont'. 
Nantucket and 
Martha's Vineyard
Trying to find a bad spot to fish on the islands would probably be more difficult than the reverse. Here are a few of the more popular spots.
Martha's Vineyard - Try Katama Beach on the back side or Tashmoo Beach in Vineyard Haven.
Nantucket - Try the points. Smith, Eel, and Great Point are usually hot spots.
 

 

Many of these beaches may charge admission during the summer season.  If you want  to avoid these charges you can fish in the early morning or late afternoon into night, which just happen to be the most productive times when fishing from shore.
