📰 News we're reading
• Two homes on eroding Eastham bluffs are being demolished (capeandislands.org) — Two homes perched on the eroding bluffs above Nauset Light Beach in Eastham are being demolished after the town deemed them dangerous and pushed owners to act. A reporter explains the ecological and public health risks if houses or septic systems fall onto the beach, how Eastham officials used fines and a court order, and why erosion is an unavoidable fact of life on the Outer Cape. 
• New England's top 4 beaches: travelers reveal the must-visit spots (carolineprogress.com) — Eastham just ranked fourth in a reader poll of New England’s favorite beach towns, praised for its quiet dunes, lighthouse views, and relaxed Cape Cod feel. The piece highlights walks along long sandy beaches, biking local trails, seal spotting, and grabbing fried clams at low-key seafood shacks, positioning Eastham as a less glitzy but very appealing coastal escape.
