The arm-shaped peninsula known as Cape Cod rests in the southeast
corner of Massachusetts, extending east into the Atlantic Ocean. Its
559.6 miles of coastal shoreline are accented by bays, harbors, beach-
es and marshland settings of breath-taking natural beauty. Cape
Cod incorporates all of Barnstable County, which comprises 15 towns:
Bourne, Sandwich, Falmouth, Mashpee, Barnstable, Yarmouth, Dennis,
Harwich, Brewster, Chatham, Orleans, Eastham, Wellfleet, Truro, and
Provincetown.
With waterfront to please all tastes, Cape Cod’s northern shoreline
is formed by the tidal waters of Cape Cod Bay; south lies the warm
waters of Nantucket Sound; easterly is the raw power of the Atlantic
Ocean and across its landscape are over 365 kettle ponds formed by
the glaciers thousands of years ago.
Cape Cod’s location provides access to many activities both on the
water and land, and its temperate climate, thanks to the nearby Gulf
Stream, allows enjoyment for many months out of the year. For exam-
ple, located just off the shore of Provincetown to the northwest is the
Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary, a renowned location for
whale watching. And, many of the towns’ harbors provide deep-water
access to sportfishing and world-class sailing. Additionally, Cape Cod
has become a premier golf destination, with over 35 public and private
golf courses; many designed by today’s biggest golf course architects
including Reese Jones, Geoffrey Cornish, Skip Wogan and Brian Silva.
Let’s not forget the rich arts and cultural heritage on Cape Cod provid-
ing activities from orchestras and opera to galleries, museums and
performing arts.
When describing a location on Cape Cod, locals refer to four distinct re-
gions: the Upper Cape is the region located closest to the mainland, the
Mid Cape is located in the middle as you move east. Next comes the
Lower Cape, located at the elbow of the arm and then as you progress
further out into the Atlantic toward the tip of Cape Cod you have the
Outer Cape.

TRUROTruro is the smallest and least populated town on Cape Cod. Home to
dramatic sandy cliffs from Atlantic to Bay, Truro is unsurpassed in its nat-
ural beauty. Built in 1797, Highland Lighthouse, located on a cliff 183 feet
above sea level, is the oldest lighthouse on Cape Cod. Truro resides close
enough to Provincetown to enjoy its activities, but far enough removed to
bask in peaceful seclusion.
