This is arguably the most scenic bike trail in Cape Cod. It has almost everything Cape Cod bike trails have to offer: the marsh, the cranberry bog, picturesque cape towns, and of course the shining sea. A few tips: Near the Woods Hole terminus of the trail, there is a very good bakery called Pie in the Sky, which is a good stop to refuel. Also from there, the Nobska lighthouse is close by (~1 mile away), which also worth a side trip.

Bill and Edie were very easy to work with and were able to match our schedules as the day played out. Upon calling this morning, they suggested a location near the Peter Pan bus terminal that provides easy access to the Shining Sea Bikeway. They provided us with two high quality electric bikes (with various size options), helmets, and saddle bags. They also were knowledgeable of the area and provided suggestions of places to visit while biking. The bikes themselves were fantastic. The electric pedal assist simply allows you to cover more distance (we biked 15 miles today) and there is a throttle feature on the bike that is useful for passing or going up hills. Next time we are in the Falmouth area, we will definitely be renting bikes with Bill and Edie!

I love this beach and visit whenever I am on the Cape. This year we decided to go at low tide and enjoyed an incredible walk. It’s amazing to see how far out the beach actually goes. We saw a lot of oyster beds, sand crabs and lots of families with their kids trying to net sand crabs. It was a beautiful outing.
