Here are the clues.

Waquoit Bay is a beautiful bay located on the south side of Cape Cod at the border between Falmouth and Mashpee. It is one of the best locations on the Cape for kitesurfing, and a great place for kayaking, boating or swimming.
This box is nearer to the dirt road entrance to the bay, but it is probably easier to access from the South Cape Beach parking lot, as otherwise you will have to wade across the river leading to the salt marsh. There are a number of paths crossing the dunes between the beach and the bay.
You are looking for a path close to the entrance to the salt marsh from the bay. If you are walking along this path looking to the ocean side, you will see an old rusting oil tank. Walk behind it (towards the ocean), being careful to avoid thorns and poison ivy. You will see a small evergreen tree growing between two small stone walls. Behind the tree is the box.
