The allure of Cape Cod What is it about “The Cape” that keeps attracting new visitors and calling others to return again and again? In addition to historical significance and quaint byways, the 15 towns of Barnstable County that make up Cape Cod each showcase unique beauty and character. The towns are loosely grouped into four geographic regions. Beginning at the Cape Cod Canal in the town of Bourne, the Upper Cape also includes Falmouth, Sandwich, and Mashpee. Next comes the Mid-Cape area, made up of Barnstable, Yarmouth, and Dennis, followed by the Lower Cape’s Brewster, Harwich, and Chatham.

Continuing above the “elbow,” you’ll find Orleans, Eastham, Wellfleet, Truro, and Provincetown, which make up the Outer Cape.

When you come to the Cape, you might think you’re on a simple waterfront, but the reality is the Cape is an island—it’s surrounded by 559.5 miles of coastline—meaning we are one with the sea, and the fish are both friends and food.

Across the Cape, you have fifteen towns with fifteen different sets of personalities, favorite ice cream shops, eclectic take-out seafood places, and little boutiques selling every kind of knick-knack, keepsake, and memento, each like a scene in a painting—then there are the tours, attractions and unique meeting venues.

Dune tours! Whale Watching tours! Pirate tours! Ghost tours!

Brewery tours! Trips to the Islands of Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. More tours than your itinerary can handle! And that’s not to mention the museums, gardens, galleries and symphony—there’s so much going on and not enough time for it all!

If you ever doubt whether this is the place to bring a group or meeting, remember one thing: it’s literally where the Pilgrims landed when they first came to America; if that’s not an endorsement, what is?

Can’t wait to see you soon! Plan your trip now before the tides and crowds wash your preferred dates off the calendar!

Yours in hospitality,

RECEPTIVE OPERATORS

Planning Your Trip

Nauset Beach in Orleans

RECEPTIVE OPERATORS CAPE COD NATIONAL SEASHORE For many, a trip to the Cape wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the Cape Cod National Seashore. This national treasure came into being on August 7, 1961, when President John F. Kennedy signed into law the Cape Cod National Seashore Act. Some 68 square miles in area, the National Seashore offers more than 43,000 acres of beaches, woods, ponds, and hiking and biking trails. With close to 40 miles of Atlantic shoreline, the Cape Cod National Seashore is administered by the National Park Service and encompasses parts of the towns of Chatham, Eastham, Orleans, Provincetown, Truro, and Wellfleet. The year-round Salt Pond Visitor Center in Eastham and the seasonal Province Lands Visitor Center in Provincetown provide information to visitors. nps.gov/caco

The most successful group leaders turn to local Receptive Operators when taking their groups to Cape Cod. A Receptive Operator is a local tour company that provides complete programs to motorcoach/ tour operators for their Cape visits.

Receptives provide regional knowledge, local contacts, volume buying power and helpful guides that add local flavor to your tour programs.

Bourne Bridge on Cape Cod Canal

Nobska Lighthouse

UPPER CAPE The Cape Cod Canal divides the town of Bourne and is crossed by the Bourne and Sagamore bridges for road traffic and a picturesque railroad bridge. Bourne draws visitors who want to be out on the water for boating and fishing with its beautiful harbors, inlets, and coves. The Cape Cod Canal Bikeway runs along the canal and beckons bicyclists, runners, and those who just want to stroll.

Thousands of runners from around the world flock to Falmouth every August for the seven-mile Falmouth Road Race. The scenic route is as big a draw as the race itself.

Bicyclists take advantage of the town’s Shining Sea Bikeway.

Falmouth also includes Nobska Point Light, Spohr Gardens, and the village of Woods Hole, home to a famous oceanographic institution and to an island ferry dock.

Beautiful Sandwich was founded in 1637, making it one of the oldest towns in America. The historic district in the center of town boasts the 17th-century Dexter’s Grist Mill among other must-see sights. Also in Sandwich is the largest public garden in Southern New England, Heritage Museums & Gardens.

In addition to its miles of ocean beaches and four of the largest freshwater ponds on Cape Cod, Mashpee is home to world-class golf courses. The Mashpee Wampanoag tribe’s annual Powwow in July is not to be missed.

MID-CAPE Old King’s Highway, Route 6A, winds along the MidCape’s northern edge, near Cape Cod Bay, and forms the largest contiguous historic district in the nation, with sea captains’ houses, historic inns, ancient trees, and churches. On the south side, Route 28 bustles with family entertainment, shopping, accommodations, and restaurants.

The seven villages of the town of Barnstable make it the largest, most populous town on Cape Cod. South of the villages of West Barnstable and Barnstable on Cape Cod Bay are Centerville, Cotuit, Marstons Mills, Osterville, and Hyannis, which is the transportation hub for those traveling to and from Cape Cod (by airplane, train, or bus) and a main shopping destination for Cape Codders as well as visitors.

Yarmouthport on the north side and South Yarmouth and West Yarmouth on the south make up the town of Yarmouth. Many of the inns along Route 6A in Yarmouthport are historic houses; worth a visit are the Captain Bangs House Museum, Taylor-Bray Farm, and the Edward Gorey House. Along Route 28 are entertainment

options for the whole family, from art exhibits at the Cultural Center of Cape Cod to mini-golf and go-karts.

The shores of Nantucket Sound in West Dennis and Dennisport boast some of Cape Cod’s best beaches. Centrally located South Dennis features a favorite destination for family dogs, who are not allowed on most Cape beaches in the summer. The Cheryl Malone Fresh Pond dog park gives pooches a place to romp and swim. On the north side of town are the villages of East Dennis and Dennis, home to the Cape Cod Museum of Art and the Cape Playhouse, the oldest professional summer theatre in the country.

Nauset Light is Eastham’s welcoming beacon. The town is home to the Cape Cod National Seashore’s Salt Pond Visitor Center. Open year-round, the center offers a museum, theater, and shop.

Wellfleet is known for much more than its famous oysters: There are spectacular ocean beaches to visit, a drive-in movie theater, and the Massachusetts Audubon Society’s Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary.

More than half of the land in Truro lies within the Cape Cod National Seashore. The town is home to more than 10 beaches and to Truro Vineyards, a winery that is open to visitors.

At the tip of Cape Cod is one of the region’s liveliest communities. Eclectic eateries and shops share the downtown with inns and art galleries. Provincetown is a happening place, as artists and writers share their home with a gay summer resort scene.

Cranberry Bogs, Harwich

Chatham Windmill

LOWER CAPE Each of the towns that make up the “elbow joint” of the Cape, Brewster, Harwich, and Chatham, offers unique charms.

Chatham on the south attracts thousands of visitors each year, with its lively downtown featuring dozens of shops and restaurants. A landmark lighthouse and ocean views provide a feast for the eyes. In the summer, locals and visitors flock to weekly concerts by the Chatham Band and to Cape Cod Baseball League games of the Anglers.

On the northern side of the elbow, Brewster—once a sea captains’ enclave—is now home to inns, galleries, and antiques shops as well as the Cape Cod Museum of Natural 16

History, with exhibits and walking trails.

Harwich, where you’ll find the Cape Cod Lavender Farm and First Crush Winery, is made up of seven villages. Nantucket Sound beaches and inland ponds offer opportunities for swimming, boating, and relaxation. The village of Harwich Port hosts weekly Port Summer Nights in July and August, featuring live music enjoyed by locals and visitors as they stroll the downtown.

The Harwich Cranberry Arts & Music Festival, a two-day September event, offers more than 100 artisans and other vendors, plus food trucks and live music.

The whaling capital of the world in the 1800s, Nantucket became prosperous thanks to its fleet. The Nantucket Whaling Museum features both permanent and rotating exhibits of art, artifacts, and other treasures that tell the story of the island’s Golden Age. Side by side with gourmet restaurants and trendy boutiques stand pre-Civil War houses on cobblestone streets that are still shaded by century-old elms.

We love buses! Tidbits, helpful hints and safety tips for drivers and escorts Cape Cod is an iconic destination made up of 15 towns, unique main streets, narrow lanes and byways.

• Never drop off on a main street. This causes traffic disruptions and dangerous safety situations.

• Never drop off on the left side of any street.

• Never drop off in a fire lane or commercial loading zone.

Many of our communities have dedicated parking maps that allow for appropriate drop-offs and pickups. Please ask

Commercial Street, Provincetown

us. These designated areas are generally used to keep traffic flow smooth in busy locations and avoid gridlock with buses waiting for their passengers. Don’t let your engine idle for more than five minutes.

Dropping off – Many towns here have dedicated dropoff spots, and 15 minutes is allowed to load and unload passengers. Then the motorcoach can be moved to a designated parking spot or lot.

Staging – Think of this as the waiting time between the bus departing for its destination and when passengers board the bus. Staging areas are where your bus driver will temporarily wait before moving on to the loading area to pick up your group.

Loading – Loading time begins when passengers begin to board the bus. We have designated areas designated for the pickup of passengers, which shouldn’t be used for long-term parking or staging.

Loading zones in busy areas generally have a time limit of 15 minutes.
