When to visit

The best time to visit Cape Cod is during the summer months from June to August when the weather is warm and perfect for beach activities. Spring and fall are also great times to visit for fewer crowds and pleasant weather. Winter can be cold and quiet, but some attractions remain open for visitors.

Getting around

The best way to get around Cape Cod is by car, as public transportation options are limited. Visitors can also rent bicycles to explore the scenic bike paths or take advantage of the Cape Cod Regional Transit Authority buses. Taxis and rideshare services are available for shorter distances.

Traveller tips

Don't forget to pack sunscreen and insect repellent for outdoor activities in Cape Cod. Make sure to book accommodations in advance, especially during the peak summer season. Explore the local farmers' markets for fresh produce and artisanal goods. Be prepared for traffic congestion on weekends and holidays. Check for any beach closures or restrictions before heading out for a day by the ocean. Try the famous Cape Cod potato chips for a tasty snack.
