Provincetown Travel Guide
Map
Welcome to Provincetown!
Located on a peninsula at the tip of Cape Cod is Provincetown, the site of the first pilgrim landing in 1620. Visitors can climb to the top of the Pilgrim Monument, which stands to mark their historic landing, to enjoy panoramic views of the harbor and the Cape Cod National Seashore. Another popular attraction is Provincetown Art Association and Museum, home to four galleries showcasing works by a variety of American artists. The town is somewhat isolated, but this is compensated by easy accessibility by ferry for travelers from Boston and other parts of the state. Bordered by stretching beaches on either side of the peninsula, Provincetown is a haven for recreation enthusiasts and whale watchers alike. During the whales' migratory season, between April and October, whale watching tours are abundant. With over 20 bed and breakfast accommodations, visitors have plenty of opportunity to experience Provincetown hospitality.
