No you'll have to pay the 20.00 and that will also get you into Skaket beach the same day

Nope. It will cost you $25 for a day of parking. Skaket is in Orleans so you would need an Orleans pass.

Yes they are. However, you must make sure it is anchored. The winds are very strong at times and I have witnessed a heavy metal canopy roll away in the wind because the owner only buried the legs in the sand. The people who appear to be regulars with canopies bring four 5 gallon buckets with them, fill them with bay water and bungee one to each leg of the canopy. Hope this helps.

As noted by others, it's free after Labor Day

$20 on June 5, 2016 Sunday. Free after 4:30 pm

someone said before 11am- if you wait that long might as well wait till 1 or 2 pm by 10 am on any nice day in summer lot will be full- pretty small lot and mow they only allow a few cars to stay in line turn rest away. Hint park at Captain Linnell House and no cost and 10 minute walk to beach
