In the center of Sandwich sits Shawme Duck Pond, an idyllic watering hole typically filled with waterfowl. The pond is surrounded by historic homes as well as a working grist mill. Off of 6A, Titcomb’s Bookstore has been family-owned and operated since 1969. The three-story retail space has a wide selection ranging from bestsellers to rare books. At Twin Acres Ice Cream Shoppe, you can order homemade ice cream and enjoy it under a few old-growth shade trees. Sandwich is not a top tourist destination compared to other Cape towns, which means its local attractions are often less crowded and easier to take advantage of, even during the summer months. Heritage Museums and Gardens is not too far from the town center, and throughout the season, as flowers bloom, different festivities and events take place. Even in the winter, everything is wrapped in lights in the most magical way during Gardens Aglow. Of course, this coastal town is also home to the spectacular Town Neck Beach, where beachgoers can walk across the iconic town boardwalk.
