A lot of people ride their bikes on the Cape Cod Rail Trail every year, but not many see this section of the old tracks, a bit past the eastern end of the trail. Great place to walk.

See if you can find the rusty but functional railroad switch. You can operate it with impunity, as trains no longer use this track.

playing on the tidal flats

The tidal flats in cape cod bay are a year round wonder...In the summertime or early fall you can step comfortably into the place that doesn't belong to neither the land nor the sea but is a combination of both...The flats are an incredible treat! As spring emerges after the winter months (during cold, snowy seasons), an alien landscape of landbound icebergs are just a wild trip to check out at low tide on the flats. You might think you were on another planet!

very long beachfront on low tide. notice the sandbars, they leave lots of 1 to 3ft pools to splash or chill out near.

Rent a house

Rent a house, Dennis

 shohman Says:  there are plenty of houses to rent, but reserve early, some are booked more than a year in advance. My group of friends would always rent a large house and split the cost for the week. This is the best way to go. your own house and yard for the week 

The Old Landing: Classic Cape Cod

The Old Landing: Classic Cape Cod, Dennis

 Fewf Says:  This is totally Cape Cod. At the end of a dead-end street, with a 30-second walk to the beach. And if you're lonely, David, the innkeeper, is a fun guy. If you don't want to pay too much, you can get a motel unit. For about $10 more (during off-season), you can get a room...

Pancakes

this is a ritual. After a night of drinking we would drag our groggy butts to the Pancake Man to refuel.

Favorite Dish: ummm, Pancakes

this is the last thing you see at the rotary before going over the borne bridge to enter the cape. Cape cod is full of these odd landmarks off the road at any given time.

Favorite thing: when driving around take note of all the 'neat' things you see off the road. This was a restaurant. The main roads are littered with windmills, buoys, boats, nets, and anything else to do with the sea.
