For those who live in and around Cape Cod, there is much to do in the way of travelling, sight-seeing and dining. In fact, the Cape presents some amazing opportunities and fun-filled activities for the whole family. For those who live nearby, a day trip to the Cape is not a bad idea either. Today we’ll talk about one of the best experiences you can have at Cape Cod in Chatham, MA.
Have you ever noticed that every summer there is an increase in news reports of great white sharks being spotted off Chatham’s coast? That’s because a great number of sharks come looking for seals. And not just sharks, but swarms of people also line up on the shore to witness these seals
One of the finest places for watching seals is the
Chatham Pier Fish Market where these playful sea creatures come close to the docks and the boats looking for something to eat. This is also a great way to experience the fishing trade in action.
A word of advice: always go during off hours, because the parking lot is small and spaces tend to fill up fast. And also pick up some fish while you’re there.
Seal-watching is, of course, just of the many reasons to visit the patriarch of Cape Cod towns. You can always spend some time shopping and exploring the downtown.
Chatham sits on the edge of Cape Cod and stretches for 60 miles along the ocean, providing a never-ending coastline covering several sounds, coves and inlets. And then there are the beaches.
The town also appeals to bird-watchers who visit to witness the wildlife refuge. In short, there is something for everyone in Chatham.
You can reach the Main St. through MA 28, where you find the main market area as well as the upscale lodgings. You can also find free parking along Main Street-
