Common questions
Is Maguire Landing in Wellfleet open today?
Maguire Landing is not monitored right now. MA DPH samples beach water Memorial Day to Labor Day and posts no advisories or all-clears off-season, so there is no swim status to report. Swimming off-season is at your own risk.
Can non-residents park here in summer?
Not in the lot itself as of the 2023 rule change, which limits in-season parking to Wellfleet resident stickers. Non-residents can still walk in.
What rules should I know at Maguire Landing?
In-season lot access is limited to Wellfleet resident parking stickers only (2023 Selectboard vote).
Can you swim at Maguire Landing?
There is no MA DPH swim status for Maguire Landing off-season: the state samples beach water Memorial Day to Labor Day. Swimming off-season is at your own risk; check conditions posted at the beach.
Are dogs allowed at Maguire Landing?
Pets are banned on the guarded portion of the beach 9am-5pm, May 15-Oct 15 (town rule); may still be walked leashed from the parking lot past the guarded area outside those hours. NPS's own pets guidance for the Seashore describes the same restriction for this beach by name, since it sits inside…
