First time in Cape with 1 & 4 year olds: Falmouth vs. Dennis Port/Harwich ?

We are planning a 3 nights 4 day trip at the end of August. We will be driving from Boston. I am looking for warm and calm beaches where little ones can enjoy. After researching by myself, I found these two option for kid friendly warm beach areas.
Option 1: 3 nights at Falmount. With 1 day trip to MW by ferry.
Option 2: staying at Dennis port, finding a place by the beach.

I have no idea how to navigate in Cape; if these two options make sense or if the beaches are even good for kids. I love to explore a bit Cape as well.

Any advice would be appreciated.

New Trek Fetch2 vs. 5 year old Tern GSD S10

Hi! I’m getting my first cargo e-bike mainly for school drop-offs and riding with my kids (ages 1 and 4).
I found a used tern gsd s10 — a 2020 model that looks to be in great condition — but it costs about the same as a brand-new Trek Fetch+ 2.
I know the Tern GSD has an amazing reputation, but I’m wondering whether it still makes sense at the same price point, since the Fetch+ 2 also seems like a very solid premium cargo bike.
What matters most to me is: stability and safety with kids and an enjoyable ride that still feels like a bicycle

I tried an Urban Arrow before, and while I understand why people love it, it didn’t really feel like riding a bike to me.
Would love to hear from anyone who has experience with either of these bikes — especially both. Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated!
