A 63-mile scenic route along the historic south shore of Cape Cod Bay and up the Outer Beach along the Atlantic Ocean in Cape Cod National Seashore to Provincetown at the Cape’s northern tip. Like a flexed, muscular, 60-mile arm, Cape Cod bends far out into the Atlantic Ocean from the southeastern corner of Massachusetts. This long, crooked peninsula, bordered by 585 miles of shoreline and 310 miles of sand beaches, is a quintessential New England landscape. When anyone talks of the great natural wonders of the Northeast, the Cape is always the first one mentioned—and for good reason.
Special attractions: Historical Museum, Crocker Tavern, Cape Cod Museum of Natural History, Nickerson State Park, Cape Cod National Seashore, Nauset Beach and Light, Marconi Beach and Station Site, Race Point, Salt Pond Visitor Center, Province Lands Visitor Center, Old Harbor Life Saving Station, Three Sisters Lighthouse, trails, hiking, picnicking, beaches, biking, birding, fishing, and children’s programs. This eTrail is a complete description of a scenic drive with a route map and information on the best travel seasons, interesting sites, recreation opportunities, camping locations, and much more.
