A small, quiet bay pocket beach at the end of Fisher Road, named for a 19th-century family who lived nearby. The bay-side setting keeps the water calmer and warmer than Truro's ocean beaches, and a tiny lot of about 10 spaces keeps crowds thin even in summer.

How far is this from Pamet Harbor?

Why does it feel so much quieter than Truro's other beaches?
The lot has room for roughly 10 cars, among the smallest of any Truro beach, which naturally caps how many people are ever there at once.
