Nestled in the heart of Harwich, the charming coastal village of Harwich Port features quaint cottages, a bustling main street with locally-owned shops and restaurants, beaches overlooking Nantucket Sound, and natural beauty around every corner. One of seven villages within Harwich, Harwich Port’s deep maritime roots are still reflected in the community’s culture today.

This walkable (or bikeable) village offers three public beaches to discover: Bank Street Beach, Red River Beach, and Merkel Beach. Each with their own unique qualities, they’re some of the best beaches on Cape Cod—for a day in the sun or a summer evening sunset (with a pizza from the award-winning George’s Pizza House at 564 Main Street of course!). 

Located at 566 on Route 28, Dune Boutique—the flagship boutique of Dune Jewelry (voted the number one Best Vacation Jewelry Brand two years in a row by Global Traveler)—offers a selection of handmade jewelry featuring sand from Harwich Port and Cape Cod beaches, and over 5,500 elements from around the world to customize your own one-of-a-kind design (don’t miss their sand wall in store to find your favorite beach). In the same building, you’ll find The Haberdash—a boho beach boutique that carries a curated collection of clothing and coastal accessories that’ll take you from a day on the water to a night out in the Port.
