Boston day trip recommendations needed

Posted by: nicole on Jul 30, 02 at 11:39 AM Posted in: United States Tagged: Jump to last reply

Hi,

I am going to Boston Aug 8-11 and would like to see the Cape or Martha's Vineyard or Nantucket. I have read thru the archive and most people do not recommend trying to do this in a day trip from Boston especially on the weekend bcs of traffic, parking and lines. Others said it was doable and made reference to a "fast" ferry from Boston to Provincetown. What is doable and what is the best town or island to see?? I would love to see the whales and hang out in a nice little town that has neat shops and good food. We will have a rental car.

Thank you for your help!!
Nicole
