What To Do

Although Quidnet and Squam are strictly residential, both areas are a short distance to the Wauwinet, Monomoy and Mid Island areas where you can enjoy various activities, hiking trails and multiple dining options. 

Beaches

Quidnet Beach & Sesachacha Pond are both located off of Quidnet Road and are popular spots for families in that area. The pond is the island’s largest kettle pond and its perimeter beach has soft sand and no surf, which makes it perfect for kayaking and sailing. Quidnet Beach is just a short distance over the dunes and has spectacular views of Sankaty Lighthouse. With over 250 acres, this is also a great place for walking your dog or hiking along the sandy paths.
