Book Stores near Eastham, MA

“We visited on a Sunday afternoon in mid-June 2025.

The two staff in here were very nice and answered our questions. The store has a great selection of merch and it's a decent size. The items here are slightly different than those available at the cape cod national seashore at Provincetown. So if you see something you like, I suggest just buying it now or you may have to go back.

The NPS Passport Cancellation stamp is at a small table just outside of this park store.”

“Outstanding local bookstore with a selection far of aster than what you would expect by looking at the store from the outside. Wander in, enjoy the selection and great staff. Staff. Spend local. Keep Cape Cod strong.”

“Herridge Books is my favorite bookstore on the planet. I have been coming to this bookstore every year since I was a kid and owner and I keep in touch throughout the year. You can spend hours in the store, you can spend hours in the store.”

“We stumbled upon a cute bookshop while we were exploring a bit of the cape. Sea Howl Bookshop has a great selection of new and used books along with cards, notebooks, puzzles and more.

We were greeted by a lovely bookshop worker who was helpful with suggestions of books for the genere we were looking for.

Though small, this book shops warm, inviting and peaceful vibe is an overwhelming happy place for a bookworm. Buy a book and on a nice day have a seat out in front with a coffee to start reading your new adventure. Definitely worth a pop in, if you are in the area!

“I’ve taken my son here a couple of times now and both times the woman behind the counter has been so kind to him, so we will be back again! Yes, the prices are a little high but it’s regular compared to what you will find at any small business/toy store on the cape.”

“Family friendly. We ate on the patio. We got seated on a Friday night within 20 minutes. Tasty food with generous portions. Recommend the shrimp tacos, oyster po boy, Mexican baked cod and fried scallops.”

“Wow! This place is awesome! It literally feels like you are walking into some type of alternate reality where magic exists! I was half expecting a bunch of fairy's to flutter out from behind one of the leather bound books. Perhaps a knight was about to ask me to aide him in a noble quest as I turned a corner into the fantasy section. This store oozes with the authenticity and wonder that has now been all but lost to the realm of modern book stores. It isn't the size of a mega book retailer, but that's a good thing. There aren't people shouting for muffins and coffees as an employee frantically restocks blue rays and a group of teens walk by - cackling at the nudity in a book of classical renaissance paintings. This store is lined wall to wall with books. It is also put inside what appears to be the mansion of some old sea captain! Perhaps it was the entrance hall to his dwelling on Cape Cod of long ago. The air smells of fresh lavender and crisp library paper - a subtle node of sea salt lingers as well. There is also lots of cool new age stuff and fun metal jewelry and crystal. This place is like a witch and wizard watched "page master," and decided to move to Cape Cod for a simpler life. The prices are phenomenal, the selection is CRAZY big, and the woman working the cash register was quite possibly the sweetest person I have ever interacted with. Usually I would say "support this small town business" but this time I'm saying "DONT MISS OUT!" Because it's that good!! Happy hunting y'all!”
