Cape Cod Experiences | Things To Do & Activities
Captain’s Mile Walking Tour
Yarmouth Port
Step back in time and lose yourself on the Captain’s
Mile as you stroll past fifty historic 18th and 19thcentury sea captains’ homes. Download the online
map for a 1.5-mile self-guided walking tour through
the historic village of Yarmouth Port and look for
the houses that bear the landmark gold and black
Schooner Plaque. While these lovingly preserved
homes are privately owned, you can visit the Captain
Bangs Hallet House Museum along the way for an
intimate glimpse into the life of a fully furnished sea
captain’s home, circa 1840.
Clamming for Dinner
Ever wonder what it takes to head out on
a shellfishing adventure? Fill your family’s
bucket in keeping with this ultimate New
England tradition and go clamming for
dinner on Cape Cod’s extensive shoreline,
just waiting to be raked over for quahogs,
cherrystones, littlenecks and soft-shell
clams. All it takes for a memorable foray on
the flats is a love of nature, a glance at a tide
chart, some basic tools of the trade, and a
daily or seasonal license to dig provided by
the local town hall.
