EXPLORING THE LOWER CAPE

BREWSTER is a quaint town rich in nature, history and peaceful locales for you to explore.

Jumpstart your day with java or tea at the cozy Snowy Owl Coffee Roasters, a playful and inventive pastry at Eat Cake 4 Breakfast, fresh daily specials on the patio at Cafe Alfresco, or a classic breakfast at The Kitchen Cafe, where fine food and casual dining meet.

Next, head to the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History for programming on the natural world and walking trails like the Stony Brook Valley Preserve and Wing's Island. Check out Drummer Boy Park for a bit of play and exploration of the Higgins Farm Windmill and the Hopkins Blacksmith Shop. Nickerson State Park boasts 1900 acres of terrain great for hiking and camping. Discover local farms like Punkhorn, Chatham Bars Inn, Namskaket, and Halcyon or bring your bike to the Cape Cod Rail Trail which leads all the way to Wellfleet.

Peruse the local shops for the items you need and the ones you really want. Wayne’s Antiques and Wisteria Antiques will transport you back in time, while Pelo Mar and La Bodega will swing you right back into contemporary styles. The Brewster Store and HandCraft House have you covered on gifts and knickknacks, Brewster Book Store has tales for days, and Green Road Refill will stock you up on your household essentials. For art aficionados, embark on a gallery hop through Struna Galleries, Aries East Gallery, Stringe Art & Antiques, Millstone Sculpture Gallery and the unique Underground Art Gallery

The bayside beaches like Breakwater Beach, Paines Creek Beach and Linnell Landing Beach are where you'll catch sight of the infamous Brewster Flats created by the ebbs and flows of the tide, along with some superb sunsets.

Dinner beckons at The Island Blue Crab, OKI Sushi, The Brewster Fish House, Spinnaker, and Chillingsworth if you’re feeling like fine dining. For a bar with live music and a Dead Head vibe, check out The Woodshed.

ORLEANS is the commercial hub of the lower and outer Cape and is a go-to for year round shopping.

Fuel up for the day at Viv’s Kitchen & Juice Bar, Sunbird, The Rail, Jo Mama’s, Whisk, or Hole In One For grub on the go, dip into Friends Marketplace, Cibo Italian Kitchen & Market, Orleans Whole Foods, or Main Street Wine & Gourmet. Take those goodies on a hike at Kent’s Point, a beach day at Nauset Beach, a picnic at the Jonathan Young Windmill or the Meadow on the Cove overlooking Orleans Cove. For less sun-drenched recreation, hit the lanes at The Alley BBQ & Bowling or catch a show at The Academy of Performing Arts.

If shopping is your cardio, head downtown. Main Street will keep you busy with shops like The Sparrow Store, Homegrown Boutique, Vintage in Vogue, Savvy on Main, Oceana, Blake & Co., Stephen Gallant Jewelers, and Wild Water Collective. Just off Main Street, find your desirables at Sœur, Designs by S&R, Sunset Leisure, and Earth House. For art and more, check out Trove and The Frying Pan Gallery. More shopping awaits in East and South Orleans at places like Adorn for home goods and textiles, Weekend for understated chic attire, Canterbury Leather for active footwear, and Cottage for goods and gifts with a Cape feel. For marine gear, be sure to stop at Pump House Surf Shop and Nauset Surf.

Give your legs a break and grab a brew at Hog Island, or enjoy dinner nearby. The Barley Neck Inn is known for its live music, as much as it is for its cuisine. The new Las Chidas has a groovy, surfy vibe that pairs well with its craft cocktails and street style tacos. For classic American food served with comfortable and casual elegance, get cozy at Mahoney’s or The Beacon Room. Take your tastebuds on a trip at Abroad for global cuisine, Ten Yen for sushi or La Bella Vita for Italian but save room for dessert at the Hot Chocolate Sparrow.

EASTHAM, the first town of the Outer Cape, is known for its expansive beaches, locally loved businesses and cultural sites.

Before a day at the beach, lay a base at the Eastham Cafe, Fairway Restaurant, The Chocolate Cafe, or stop at Laura & Tony’s for a mimosa and a classic American breakfast (or opt for one of their tasty vegan dishes).

Next, find your way to the Cape Cod National Seashore - a landmark known nationwide. Here you can learn about the history of the park at the Salt Pond Visitor Center and find the beginning of one of the best hikes in the area through the Nauset Marsh Trail, by Done Rock, down the Cape Cod Rail Trail to Coast Guard Beach, where you can enjoy the sand and surf.

If you’d rather play indoors, support some local businesses like ARTichoke for fun, funky apparel and accessories, Pure Vita Modern Apothecary for holistic and eco-friendly products, Rugosa Gallery for a nontraditional gallery experience, and Buddha Bob's for all the stones, crystals and jewelry you need to keep your third eye happy.

For more local attractions and activities, play a round at Poit’s Lighthouse Mini Golf, book a private boat tour with Holbrook Oyster, visit Eastham Windmill, home of many community events, as well as Nauset Light and Nauset Light Beach where you can get a permit for an evening bonfire, and cozy up with friends for a memorable night under the stars.

Quiet your midday hunger with tacos from Joey’s Joint, sandwiches and burgers at Basco Grill, raw bar, salads and classic Cape seafood at Caroline’s Bar & Grill and Mac’s Market & Kitchen, or pizza and more from The Red Barn or Good Eats on 6. When dinner time rolls around, Eastham has plenty more options.

Roll through Little Capistrano Bike Shop and score some hot new wheels for a ride starting at Wellfleet Trailhead or enjoy a hike to Great Island. Dip your toe into the arts and culture scene at the Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater and feel the nostalgia at the Wellfleet Drive-in on movie night or wander their flea market. Finally, throw back a Goombay Smash after a day in the sun and dance the night away at the (in)famous Wellfleet Beachcomber.
