Sunday was a very nice day at Sandwich Town Beach (STB). The air temps started cool, which was great but heated up towards noontime. There was a dive club or two (MassBay Divers?) having their picnic/cookout and the divers, dove right off the beach directly out from the bathroom building. That area is the deepest and most divers appears to have some luck and all enjoyed themselves I'm sure. STB must be the spot for dive club cookouts though, there was another group there last weekend.

Temps:
> air 75
> surf 65
> depth 64
Max Depth: 19ft
Visability:12-14ft
Marine Life:
> Some Large Eggers
> A few Skate
> Flounder (two just under the limit)
> A few decent sized Stripers stalked us
> Tried to hand feed them a crab...no good
Other:
> May have seen the WWII tug wreck
> Pretty dissapoinitng though.
> Just about 8 feet of smooth orange metal.
> Hope that wasn't it

FYI: There is a $10 parking fee, however if you get there early enough you can "by-pass" the fee
