Introduction

Cape Cod is one of the most popular summer vacation destinations in the United States and the world.

With plenty of things to do in Cape Cod, we can help you plan the perfect Cape Cod vacation.

Here are ten things that you can do while on your Cape Cod vacation!

Take in A Cape Cod League Baseball Game

See the MLB stars of tomorrow throughout the summer in the Cape League.

The Cape League has been around since 1885, as ten teams compete for a chance to play in the championship games that are held in mid-August.

See The Trails in Nickerson State Park in Brewster

Walk or bike along the 8-mile trail, in which you can go thorough the pine forests and along crystal-clear “kettle” ponds of Nickerson State Park.

The trail connects to the 22-mile Cape Cod Rail Trail.

Walk the Flats of a Cape Cod Bay Beach at Low Tide

Cape Cod has a wide array of beaches that you can see.

When the tide goes out, walk across the beach to see the endless stretch of rippling sand that is revealed, along with seashells and marine life.

If you enjoy the beach, then make sure that you take a look at all of the Cape Cod rentals that we have available on the beach.

Climb to the Top of Scargo Hill Observation Tower

Located in Dennis, the Scargo Hill Observation tower sits atop the highest point on the Cape.

Once you climb to the top, you can see a spectacular view of the Cape Cod Bay.

Attend an Outdoor Band Concert

Bring a picnic basket full of good food and some lawn chairs and attend an outdoor band concert.

Gather with friends and family to see local musicians perform music in gazebos.

Walk the Trails at Fort Hill

As you walk along the trail at Fort Hill in Eastham, you can take in all of the spectacular ocean views and wander through the wetlands along a winding boardwalk.

Be sure to look for great blue herons and other shorebirds as they sweep over the marsh.

Go Visit a Fish Pier

Cape Cod has many fishing piers in which you can see all of the local fishing fleets return after an entire day out at sea.
