Cape Cod in March Ideas
 

Never been to the Cape area of Massachusetts, and will be there in late March. Any suggestions on things to do during this time period?

I'll be hoping that today's snow will be long gone when you get there. We often go to the cape off season and there are some places for lodging and eating that are open. We usually focus on the area from Eastham to Provincetown.

We visit the two National Seashore Visitor's centers, take advantage of the free parking at the beaches and hike along them and in the trails in the National Seashore.

We always walk along the main drag in Ptown and stop in ones that are open. We don't do late nights, but there are some spots that are open. It is a place where people live all year so there are the usual activities that folks do in many small towns.

emalloyis right on! Go to Provincetown and the National Seashore.

So, is the Provincetown area the main area that is open?

Looking to stay middle, maybe South Yarmouth area.

March is really too early in the season for Cape Cod. Hopefully you’ll be able to walk the National Seashore okay — though if today’s big snowstorm still has left enough snow around by then, that may not even be an option. And a seashore walk may get cold and windy regardless.

Expect a lot of stores and eateries to be closed, unfortunately. You may have your best luck in the city centers of the largest towns like Chatham, Falmouth, Hyannis, or Provincetown.

I like the Outer Cape and particularly Provincetown. It has a different "feel" than the other parts of the Cape. But, as mentioned, the weather may not be ideal. I've heard that another Nor'easter is predicted for next week.
