Go back in…read moretime I love Wellfleet, it's my favorite part of the Cape. We have been coming here for years, owned property here and still have friends we frequently visit. Surprisingly it really hasn't changed that much over the years. Sure the traffic on Rt. 6 is still hellish during the summer but then it was always pretty bad. Most of it is heading toward P-Town and just going through Wellfleet. The town does get crowded during the summer but you can still find quiet places to get away. The center of town is about as quaint and New England as it gets. A few little stores, a couple of restaurants and a beautiful church. What really makes Wellfleet special is that most of it was left undeveloped.. Just one lovely place after another that was left pristine and wild. Most of the entire east side is dunes and beach. Wellfleet is a great place for walking along a lonely beach, biking on the trails or kayaking in the harbor. If you want some excitement P-Town is only a short drove to the north. If you want to go out to the islands Hyannis and the ferries aren't too far away, although in the summer it might take a while to actually get there. Like most of the Cape Wellfleet is the nicest in the off season when it becomes quiet, lonely and very, very special.

During the summer we only come by boat so road rage doesn't set in but then we're faced with the hordes of tourists in town. It's still a terrific place to be but the fall is something extra special. It was a gorgeous, sunny and warm day for a walk around the picture-perfect New England center of town, with plenty of time and space to wander into some of the shops and galleries. We are boaters so we like checking out the harbor and looking around at other people's boats. There were still plenty of them to see down at the town pier. The beach is beautiful and ideal now for a peaceful walk with the incredible dunes behind you. The pace was really relaxing, unhurried and with comfortable temperatures. This is a great town for walking and biking. It's so worth a trip down this time of year. Go if you can.

The gift shop had a great selection of items to choose from and we picked up a lovely print. Tickets were $10 per adult. The tour takes you to the top of the lighthouse which requires a lot of climbing and fitting into narrow spaces. Our tour guide Ken was the best! He helped to enhance our experience with his knowledge of the lighthouse and the historical information shared. He was also very conscious of our safety and made me feel at ease despite how narrow some of the climbing areas got. He was happy to chat with us and answered any questions we had. Highland lighthouse is the oldest and tallest lighthouse on Cape Cod. The views are absolutely worth the climb, as well as all of the historical background. Well worth the $10. Happy we made it in time for the last tour of the day. It was a one of a kind experience.

The National Parks Service…read more(NPS) does an excellent job of preserving this area, welcoming guests with the Salt Pond Visitor Center in Eastham and the Province Lands Visitor Center at the north end of the cape near Provincetown. We visited the Salt Pond Visitor Center, which is about as as good as it gets for a NPS facility, as it has a ranger station, maps, a beautiful viewpoint of Salt Pond, a museum, restrooms, gift shop, and a theater playing multiple historical films to help orient yourself to Cape Cod and learn a bit of its history. The Nasuet lighthouse is only a few minutes away, well known nationwide as the lighthouse pictured on bags of Cake Cod potato chips. We also visited Herring Cove Beach just as the sun was setting, which wasn't too crowded later in the day. The visitors centers are free to visit, although some of the beaches do have lots you need to pay to access. Overall, the Cape Cod National Seashore is well worth a visit while visiting Cape Cod, and has wonderful facilities to welcome guests that I'd happily recommend to others.

One (the year round one) is centrally located, while the second one is at the tip of the cape. The drive is easy with views along the way. I definitely recommend a National Parks Pass as it allows access to parking & well maintained restrooms, showers & changing rooms. All the Rangers were friendly & helpful in mapping out a full day's visit ensuring we hit the main spots. Do not miss the Lighthouse that was used for the Cap Code Chips. Make sure to bring a bag for photo opportunities or u may be asking someone to use theirs- LOL

There is no charge for walking to the National Park's observation deck behind the Highland Lighthouse to see a spectacular sunset over twenty miles of open water to Plymouth; or to see the astounding 270 degree curve-of-the-Earth sweep of horizon behind you. Or to go to Pamet Harbor which is one of the most beautiful places on Cape Cod - no admission. Montano's restaurant is not expensive; and neither is the Bass Tavern at the Whitman House. Ms. Anna's attitude is not unknown here; it is what we praise God we don't have to endure after Labor Day. This place is NOT about greedy locals forcing you to spend money unnecessarily. Truro is a treasure for those who take the time to find it.

The main facade has a loggia-style arcade of three arches on the first level, leading to a recessed entrance. The second story has three large windows across, and the gable end has an oculus window and dentil moulding. The building is crowned by a cupola.

Alright. So,…read moreyou're into Pharology and you find yourself in the mid-Cape Cod region. Where are you going? Here, of course. Let's keep this tight and brief. If you come you've got a decent sized parking lot with maybe 100-ish spaces. I would imagine in season on summer weekends, no comment on how diabolical it must be to get a space. For our visit, no such issues. Mid-April weekend with maybe ten other cars. To me, there are three things to do here: 1. You're going out the southeast corner of the parking lot and down the path to the beach. 2. You're taking the walk down Cable Road to see what's left of the Three Sisters Lighthouses. Yes, there is a very small "lot" there that you can drive to but it's also very walkable although at least to me, the sisters aren't much to look at considering what's left of them. 3.
