Posted by KristenM in Trip Ideas - (0 Comments)

cape cod homeThere are a lot of great activities to do on a Massachusetts vacation, but one activity that you should put at the top of your list is whale watching. Not only is it wonderful to see these animals,  it is also a great activity for the entire family. There are plenty of boat charters to choose from too. And, now is the perfect season to go whale watching. You’ll be able to see Humpback, Finback, Minke, and Pilot whales. There is a good chance that you will see dolphins, porpoises, and seals, as well.

If you’re looking to just watch some seals, you can go on the Monomoy Island Excursion. Take a trip to this wonderful island and see hundreds of seals right on the beach. Not only will you see seals, but you can also get a good view of the great white shark which is attracted to the area in search of fresh food. Just remember to make a reservation so you don’t miss out on this great nature adventure.

Everyone is sure to have a great time. So after you hit up the beaches, see all the beauty that the nature of Cape Cod has to offer. Then relax in your Cape Cod home and get ready for even more adventure.

Fresh Fish And Your Summer In Cape Cod

Posted by TimD in Trip Ideas - (0 Comments)

I am a bit of a foodie. Not like a multi-millionaire foodie going to all of the five star restaurants I can, but we do all right. We love finding the choice spots in every community we visit. I have developed a nose for finding the best food a city has to offer. When we settled into our Massachusetts vacation on beautiful Cape Cod I immediately started scouring the internet for choice eats.

What I found was a place absolutely swimming in amazing seafood. It was clear this would be our first choice while here and as an obsessive shellfish fan I could not have been happier. The Brewster Fish House was where we went for dinner the first night. The prices were super reasonable especially considering  we were on vacation and as a result eager to spend. (You can’t take it with you.) We managed to get pretty tipsy since we knew our meal was priced so well.

This place was great, after a short wait we were treated to amazing service. The courteous and intimate atmosphere made the food seem to taste better. Portions were heaping and the fish was so fresh it was as if they were dragging them off the dock and onto my plate. For a foodie this was an amazing beginning to a summer in Cape Cod.

History And Cape Cod

Posted by TimD in Uncategorized - (0 Comments)

Through the south and the north-west of the United States of America there are thousands of “hot” vacation spots. These places have beautiful beaches, some have county fairs, summer fireworks spectaculars, and plenty of shopping. But Cape Cod has all that and something far more important. Cape Cod has an indelible place in the history of this great nation. Plymouth Rock the famous landing point of the pilgrims is right there on Cape Cod. You can see it.

It is amazing to think about the arrival of all of those pilgrims in such a beautiful place. How they must have felt about the vast opportunity of such a resource-rich and picturesque area. That potential is still there when you take a Massachusetts vacation. There are still beautiful historical sites and you can explore lots of landmarked areas dedicated to remembering the founders of the United States as we know it.

In the Provincetown area there is a great monument called the Pilgrim Monument. Not only is it a monument to our collective history it also has some of the most gorgeous views in all of New England. Cape Cod of course is the original entry way to New England. It is amazing to think about standing on the place where it all began. Make some historical sites part of your Cape Cod vacation, you’ll be glad you did.
