HOW DO I GET TO PROVINCETOWN? There are several ways to get to Provincetown, MA--air, car, and ferry, or a combination thereof. Provincetown is located on the Northern tip of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, at the tail end of the "outer Cape." AIR: Those coming from out of town may choose to fly to <a href="https://www.massport.com/logan-airport" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Boston/Logan Airport</a>, or to <a href="https://flyhya.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Hyannis Airport</a> on Cape Cod. <a href="https://flights.capeair.com/en/flights-from-boston-to-provincetown-ma" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Cape Air</a> operates multiple daily, scheduled short flights between Boston's Logan International Airport and <a href="https://www.provincetown-ma.gov/170/Airport" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Provincetown Municipal Airport</a>. You can also drive or connect to a ferry service from Boston. Another attractive option for those from New York <a href="https://flyhya.com/flights-airlines/airlines/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">is to fly JetBlue directly from JFK airport or LaGuardia airport to Hyannis airport on Cape Cod </a>and then drive, take a car service, or take a bus from Hyannis to Provincetown. CAR: For those driving from Boston/Logan Airport, you can take<a href="https://www.google.com/maps/dir/Boston+Logan+International+Airport,+East+Boston,+MA/Provincetown+Inn,+Commercial+Street,+Provincetown,+MA/@42.0267905,-70.8465175,10z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m14!4m13!1m5!1m1!1s0x89e37014d5da4937:0xc9394c31f2d5144!2m2!1d-71.0107832!2d42.3653985!1m5!1m1!1s0x89fb5862f7ced7a1:0x7f27a9d8c59d6b7d!2m2!1d-70.196036!2d42.0373798!3e0?hl=en-US&amp;entry=ttu" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> I-90 W to MA-3 S to US-6 E</a>. In brief, once you're on Cape Cod, taking US-6 E to the end will get you there. However, traffic on US-6 E, US-6A E, and MA-28 S can be heavy on holiday weekends. FERRY: <a href="https://baystatecruisecompany.com/schedule-fares/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Bay State Cruise Company</a> offers multiple daily fast ferry trips between Boston and Provincetown. MacMillan Pier in Provincetown is within walking, biking, or very short cab distance of the Provincetown Inn. Ferry service is also available from <a href="https://www.captjohn.com/fast-ferry-ptown/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Plymouth, MA to Provincetown</a>.

HOW DO I GET AROUND IN PROVINCETOWN? Provincetown is a great place for walking and biking! Many restaurants, shops, bars, and tourist sites are located near Commercial Street and within walking distance of MacMillan Pier. Two of our favorite bicycle rental places are <a href="https://provincetownbikerentals.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Provincetown Bike Rental </a>and <a href="https://provincetownbikes.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Arnold's</a>. We encourage you to check out <a href="https://capecodbikeguide.com/provincelands.asp" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Province Lands bike trail</a> in addition to Commercial Street. For those of you who bring cars, there are several places to park overnight or for the day, including <a href="https://www.provincetown-ma.gov/768/Parking-in-Provincetown" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MacMillan Pier and Grace Hall parking lots</a>.

For those who are looking for a fancy exotic room with an amazing view of Provincetown, that is also very close to the wedding venue, feel free to look at Land's End Inn.

The Cape Colony Inn is a just a short walk or bikeride away from all the action of Commercial Street.

Caleb and I recommend taking the ferry from Boston to Provincetown for the convenience, beautiful views of Boston as you exit the harbor, and because holiday traffic will make the drive to Provincetown even more onerous than usual. Bay State Cruise company offers fast ferry service from Boston to Provincetown, 7 days a week. Book in advance given the Memorial Day rush. This will save you a difficult drive on the Cape via Route 6.

Travel

Bay Lady II is a 4-sail gaff schooner, sailing multiple times daily from MacMillan pier in season. Take an afternoon or sunset sail to feel the wind and take in breathtaking views of Provincetown and Long Point from the harbor.

Schooner Bay Lady II

Just off route 6, find 7 miles of bike and hiking trails looping around the Province Lands, passing through pine forests, sandy dunes, and low-lying cranberry bogs. There are connections to both Herring Cove and Race Point beaches, as well as Bennett Pond. Enjoy a nice afternoon bike ride and then cool off at the beach. Caleb and I love biking this path every time we visit Provincetown.

Province Lands Trails

Just steps from the Provincetown Inn, you can find the West End Breakwater, which was built in the 1910s by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. This offers a rocky path across the Harbor from the end of Route 6 to the Wood End Light and further stretches of beach. It's an exhilarating journey across (Caleb and I have done it), but watch your step!

The Pilgrim Monument and Provincetown Museum (PMPM) preserves and shares the fascinating history of Provincetown, Massachusetts – the site of the Mayflower Pilgrims’ first landing in the New World in 1620. Major exhibits provide an immersive experience and showcase our storied past and vibrant modern history. You can also climb the largest all-granite tower in the U.S. and view Provincetown Harbor!

Looking for sandwiches, salad, and sass in the West End? Hit up Pop+Dutch for fresh bites and good vibes.

The Lobster Pot is a Provincetown staple, serving fresh seafood and sweeping views of the Harbor. Their extensive menu has a good fit for just about any palate (i.e. its much more than just lobster). Turn East off MacMillan pier and look for the neon sign!

The Lobster Pot

Venture out to the East End to check out the amazing views (especially at high tide) at this year-round restaurant! Mark's favorite dish is the cucumber dill salmon, but you can treat yourself to delicious pasta, steak, chicken, or burgers if you're not in a seafood mood.

If you're looking for fine oceanfront dining, especially for an intimate dinner or small group setting, check out Jimmy's Hideaway. Don't let the small subterranean facade fool you--the dining room gives subtle speakeasy vibes (small, so be sure to make reservations) whereas the patio is a bit more casual. Try a craft cocktail to whet your appetite for Portuguese cod, Provincetown fisherman's stew, scallop piccata, or comfort classics.
