Holiday In Cape Cod

You know how Italy is known as the country shaped like a boot? Well, Massachusetts is kind of shaped like a boot too.

Actually, maybe more like a hooked finger tickling the Atlantic. Anyways, that funny-looking hooked finger is called Cape Cod and it’s a blast. Tend the bulbs at the historic lighthouses, make new friends in quirky towns and eat at seafood restaurants that will make you swear off frozen fishsticks. Browse our incredible deals on Cape Cod holidays and try to get an invite into the Kennedy Compound.

Things to Do in Cape Cod

You may not think you need a vehicle during a holiday in Cape Cod, but you’re going to want one. There’s no better place to pick up some wheels than from lastminute.com.au’s Cape Cod car hire options —once you’ve got them, head to Provincetown at the tip of the cape. You’ve got to check out the Provincetown Art Association and Museum, where the permanent collections feature works from some of the area’s most famous paintbrush jockeys. Edwin Dickinson, John Singer and E. Ambrose Webster are just a few gentlemen whose work is worth admiring.

After getting your art on, pay a visit to one or two (or three) of Cape Cod’s many lighthouses. There’s the Highland Light, the Nauset Light and the Race Point Light. All three are on the National Register of Historic Places and are great places to spend an afternoon.

Shopping, Dining & Nightlife

Just look at all the money you saved with one of our Cape Cod package deals! Don’t you want to spend it? Make your way to the village of Hyannis and walk around the Cape Cod Mall, the biggest shopping centre in the area. If you want more of a boutique shopping experience, then head down Main Street where there’s a number of antique stores, art galleries and tourist trap gift shops.

When you get hungry during your Cape Cod holiday, head back to Provincetown and eat seafood. Tons of seafood. Here’s how your meals for the day are going to go: Start out the morning with a plate of johnnycakes smothered in maple syrup. For lunch, scarf down a big bowl of steamy New England clam chowder followed by an 8-inch lobster roll. And finally, when dinnertime hits, there’s nothing better than a New England clam bake. It’s a big pot full of goodness from the sea.

After your final meal of the day, stick around Provincetown and join in the nighttime festivities. Cruise down Commercial Street and pick one (or more) of a bunch of different drinking establishments. You’ll definitely want go to JFK’s old neighbourhood of Hyannis and put back a few at his old haunts. But if you’re looking for big-city fun, check out our Boston holiday packages and make the quick 100-kilometre drive north to “Bean Town”. You won’t regret extending your trip by a few days.
