Ballston Beach is a large Truro beach overlooking the Atlantic Ocean on Cape Cod. This beach has soft sand and lots of space. There are some waves so swimmers should take caution as there are no lifeguards on duty. The waves make it a good place to surf or boogie board. Parking is available and there are some handicap spaces. Beach parking stickers are required.

Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is still essential. Only go to the beach if you are able to keep 6 feet or 2 meters away from others. Follow the instructions provided by your local health authorities. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter our efforts to curb the virus’s spread.
