The Wedding of Sarah & Yuriy
Things To Do
Horseneck Beach State Reservation
Although there are many local beaches, a town residency is required for entry. This beach gives a day pass for a $10 fee. There can be big waves if you like to swim, but you can also take a long walk along the beautiful beach on either the shore or a walking path between the high sand dunes if you prefer. Bathrooms and outdoor showers are available.
The Back Eddy
If you end up going to Horseneck, make sure to stop by this local favorite! Delicious fresh seafood with a great relaxed atmosphere. Drinks on the water are a plus!
Farm & Coast Market
Looking for some local fresh food while you're staying in the area? Padanaram "The Village" has a central market that sells high quality essential foods, pre-made sandwiches, or delicious meals that can be made to order. Grab some snacks, a meal, or even a bottle of wine if you want!
Dockside Ice Cream
Fresh handmade ice cream with lots of favors! Gluten free and dairy free options available.
Mirasol's Café
If you don't have a dairy allergy, get a CHiPPi. Trust me ;) A great local breakfast and lunch place with Latin-inspired flavors. Can't go wrong here! Beware, lines may be long during peak hours.
