Some are opened into later evening.

Yes, the hours may change a bit but most places remain open.

We ended up parking on the street. Try parking at the residential end and walk down. Large lot at end of Commercial near waterfront

Will you be staying at a nearby( Truro or P’town) hotel because if you are, many have free shuttles( when making your reservation just ask). There is a bus that runs the length of the Cape so depending on where you are staying, check with hotel/motel’s front desk to find out times and where you can catch bus. Actually, there are a few places in P’town where the parking charge is inexpensive! Headed onto Comercial Street ( headed east) from Truro on Rt 6A, you will come across a hardware store on left hand side, a little before “Lobster Pot Restaurant”, that allows you to park for the day for $10.00( a little “strip type mall w/ few stores” and hardware store is towards back( you can’t miss it!)! The other place we park is the parking lot to left, when you hit Ctr of town. You head towards pier but do not use first pkg lot for outrageously expensive but instead take a “rt” onto road running alongside pier! Go “past” restrooms on tge right to the end and then take a “left” onto the nx pier! It is owned separately and $15.00 for the day or as long as you are there. It looks Sm but deceiving for it stretches way out onto actual pier, with the lot opening up towards the middle! Great place to park. I also park at “THE PILGRIM MONUMENT “ just up the hill( short walk but steep going back up hill) but great walk. It cost $10.00 and you didn’t have to visit the monument ( we have gone several times and love visiting monument & kids love running up the stairs of the monument)to park there. It is a short walk to Ctr of town and inexpensive parking! My last suggestion is to travel on Rt 6( one way) coming out of Ctr of P’town this Street runs directly parallel to Commercial St but just one street over! There are many parking options on that street, as well that are so inexpensive and a skip & a jump from Commercial St. They have a “Red Trolly” once you are in town( in season) that runs all the time, taking you to the attractions in town, w/ great talks on various sights in town, once you get there! I heavily recommend it because it is so interesting and you getsi much information on P’town! I thought I would add that too! Have a great time! P’town is “SO” much fun!

Well answered by other reviewers.

Yes

I am not sure. When I drive from DC I always have private parking with the place I stay at.

Hi we just returned from Provincetown and thoroughly enjoyed it. We would recommend The Red Inn, can be a little pricey but very good food. We also loved Fanizzi's by the sea & the Lobster Pot. If you go to the Lobster Pot ask for a table in the top room adjacent to the bar - fab views! A little out of town you have Moby Dick's which has excellent fish dishes - the mussels were the best ever! If you go to Moby Dicks you take your own alcohol which the staff are more than happy to provide ice bucket & glasses for for free!! Hope this helps - enjoy!

I believe most will be open. A lot of people live there all year round.

Very limited this time of year. You can do ok. It is very pretty in the winter. Remember this is out in the Atlantic Ocean. It is cold so dress real warm and definitely go to the national seashore near p town : breathtaking.
