Top 10 Traveler Resources in Cape Cod, Cape Cod

February 15, 2022 Lashaunda Abraham

The Atlantic crashes on a coastline strewn with quaint harbors, windswept beaches, glorious dunes and blinking lighthouses. Explore Cape Cod National Seashore, bike past cranberry bogs on the Rail Trail or saunter around Sandwich, the Cape's oldest town. Many areas are architectural and culinary gems - full of weathered shingles, whaling captains' mansions, chowder shacks and upscale dining delights. Don't miss Woods Hole Oceanquest, famed Martha's Vineyard or charmingly upbeat Provincetown.

Wellfleet Public Library

Reviewed By kateb1111 - Charlottesville, United States

Whenever I'm spending a significant amount of time in Wellfleet, the second thing I do, after getting a lobster roll at PJ's, is get a library card at the Wellfleet Library. It's right in town and has a great selection of books, CDs, and DVDs. They are happy to have summer folks get cards and use them. I've never been short of good reading material. There's also a wonderful secondhand book sale in Wellfleet in early August every year that should not be missed. Enjoy!

Cultural Center of Cape Cod

Reviewed By ATsebastianm

The staff, art exhibits, classes (have taken three photography classes: two instructors were superb, the third embraced photoshop & "enhanced" photos, while I shoot unadulterated, as natural light and my eye captures the subject), on-site studios, music (bring ear-plugs) and Chef Joe offerings, are tops: five stars. Check their website for amazing free Friday opening receptions of new works, and for all the Cultural Center of Cape Cod has to offer. You too will be amazed. Love this place: a gift to us on Cape. (Half the "little joys" on my walls are from here: some of the best on Cape Cod, awash in writers, artists, creative energy, talent.) Tonight: Octoberfest!

Osterville Village Library

The Osterville Village Library is the third oldest library on Cape Cod. It began in the dining room of its first librarian, Mrs. Thankful Ames in 1873, and from then has expanded both in size and presence to become a central hub of events and community in Osterville. "Libraries open minds, open doors, open lives."

Salt Pond Visitor Center

Popular replica of an Indian settlement.

Reviewed By RdTripper_USA

We stopped here on our way to the P-town in hopes to find some outdoor hikes to do while on the Cape for the day , and we are glad we did. There is a large parking lot with free parking. You have access to several hikes right from the the lot. The visitor's center has an abundance of information abut the Cape and all the activities available. If you are looking for hikes as we were, as the Ranger for a "self guide" map of the Cape. The map is free and shows numerous places to get out doors. After our visit to the tip of the Cape, we stopped again and hiked the three trails. There are some very beautiful views if you take the time to stop and enjoy them.

you have been in traffic for a few hours and have a few more ahead of you. Hit this visitors center, stretch your legs, get great info on the canal and its history for all ages, walk the jetty a bit and the dog. Now when you go over the canal, you will know so much more about it and appreciate it.
