You won't find a better beach than Cape Cod National Seashore. I visit every year and always find new and interesting things to do. The beach is georgeous, miles and miles of sand. Swimming is great particularly in July and August. More

My husband, I and now our two kids have been going to the N. Truro area of the National Seashore for about 28 years. The few years we've missed our annual visit have been like missing Christmas or New Year's. I mark the passage of time in this peaceful, natural and serene place. I reflect back over the year(s) since... More

I lived on Cape Cod for many years, and my favorite place to go was and still is (though now I live in Florida) the Cape Cod National Seashore. There are many different ways to "get to the beach" easy stairs that go down to the water, or hiking down the cliffs. I have always liked the Cahoon Hollow Road... More

Most of the Cape Cod National Seashore is in what's called the 'Outer Cape.' This is the furthest 'out' from Boston. The Outer Cape consists of the towns Wellfleet, Truro, & Provincetown. So the beaches there are similar - beautiful, pristine, and uncrowded. Provincetown has a substantial downtown area with pretty intense nightlife. Truro has very little in it's town... More

Usually, when we go to a national park, it’s by car and we can spend as long as we’d like. This visit to Provincetown was a day trip out of Boston for us and we were dependant upon public transportation, so this was a little different and we were on someone else’s schedule. I knew the seashore was someplace we... More

We were in the area behind Provincetown, and the trolley stopped at the information center, which is indeed nice and interesting. We were somewhat disappointed not to find a walking path to go straight to the ocean, we kept walking along the bike path, then realized it was going in the wrong direction (parallel to the ocean and not toward...

This is the best part of the Cape...all of that shoreline with sweeping dunes and no houses or condos or restaurants within eyesight. Middle of September was a great time to go...not many people and still great weather. Just sitting on the beach and doing nothing...oh yes. Nauset beach was the best. Then you can go eat those great oysters... More

JFK certainly knew what he was doing fifty years ago when he used his good offices to preserve and protect this jewel from Mother Nature which extends more than twenty miles into the North Atlantic Ocean, the furthest reach of land in the continental U.S. Patti Page immortalized "Old Cape Cod," in song and indeed, the cape in general is...

We rented bikes in Provincetown, MA and rode the full bike trail through Cape Cod National Seashore park. The scenery was extraordinarily beautiful: dunes and beach plants on one segment and incredible forests on another section. For this 63 year old who hasn't ridden a bike in 15 years, the ride was a challenge but doable. The visitor's center was... More
