August 2026 – In this month’s Cape Cod Postcard, art is formed in grains of sand. This year marks the 15th anniversary of the Yarmouth Sand Sculpture Trail. The trail is a summer tradition exhibiting a series of unique sand sculptures across the town.
We followed the map to find all 23, each meticulously hand-carved by artist and sand sculptor Sean Fitzpatrick.
