what do you do there for fun? thinking about going there sometime this summer but i've never been there so i have no idea what to expect. when is the peak season , off peak? any attractions to see? any recommendations.. which town is good to stay in?
thanks

 

I liked Hyannis. I am sure one of the mass folks will chime in soon.

 

again P-town is a beatufil area and there are some sights down there.. Sandwich is nice

I'm sure Bill or Bob will chime in as they both have homes in the area

bring your S and we'll do a cape drive

 

This topic is so large it would take pages to give you ideas.
Do you want to do touristy stuff, or sit on a private dedck overlooking the water and drink beer. Go on a whale watch with 250 people or walk along a desserted beach with no one else for miles, sail, water ski, shop, bar hop etc.
Just you visiting, you your wife no kids, you your wife, kids etc... it all makes a difference as to where we'd point you.

That being said, Cape Cod is paradise on Earth in the summer, it doesn't get any better and I've lived all over this beautiful country. Now if the winters would just go away.... the S2000 could stay out and play longer :-)

Get a map and look the cape over, Falmouth and Hyannis are the two busy cities ???, lower cape is rural, sandy and less hectic.
Once you have a general idea of what you'd like call my cell and I'll give you specific recommendations if you like.

There's some good driving on Route 6a and few good places to relax. You go to the Cape to do nothing, if that makes sense... BBQ and drinking beer... I grew up on the Cape and if I had to stay somewhere my picks would be, The Seacrest in Falmouth, or the Pleasant Bay Motorlodge in Chatham. Falmouth has nice roads, especially along the water from Woods Hole to East Falmouth. You'll like PBML, quite cool and great driving around. Chatham Bars Inn is down the street which is great, but $$$.

Ptown is fun and is good for shopping. Hyannis is the best if you want night life and more of city atmosphere. Roobar is a great bar/restaurant. Beachcomber is great nite spot too...

rjk,

what's the name of that bar / restruant right on the beach in sandwich (right down by Shaws supermarket - I've lived in Sandwich, hyannisport, and craigville many moons ago when i went to college at 4Cs

oh and i'm pretty sure Craigville beach was ranked in the top ten last year the water is pretty warm

actually i like the cape in the winter - less traffic

 

steve,
that bar is called Horizons right where the cape cod canal and cape cod bay come together. great spot for the tourists to get fed and watered, with the view to die for

thanks for the reply guys

bass.. one guy on metro said the traffic is crazy to have a drive..

rjk.. going with my gf, more of like a romantic getaway, just the two of us.might meetup with friends if they are there at the same time. hmm, i plan to go up on a friday and then just check out the town and do shopping and have a nice dinner. then on sat, i would like to do the whale watching(ptown). never done that before, looks like fun. then sunday rent some scooters and roll around and head home in the afternoon. i hope you can rent scooters. i'll keep your number handy just in case..

mosesbotbol.. yeah i want to relax, got reservations at ocean edge at the end of july. its a nice resort in brewster, i wouldn't be surprised if i didn't even leave it. www.oceanedge.com

any recommendation on restaurants? with good seafood and a good view.

thanks again

 

Craigsville Beach is lousy! Old Silver Beach has warmer water.

 

WPS - it can be but 6a is very nice & scenic talk to Bob about some backroads

again Horizon's in Sandwich is awesome. they have nice deck which overlooks the ocean & beach but it's a bit of a drive from brewster
