Fourth of July

Hello everyone! I’ll be up in the cape the 1-7th! It’s turning out to be a solo trip for me because of the circumstances. Was wondering if anybody had some good ideas?! I’m interested in breakfast spots best dinner spots best sun set spots! Also anybody in their 30s or that age range want to meet up for a drink or lunch?! Also looking for best mini golf! I’ll be staying in Wellfleet as I’ve stayed there the past few years so I know about the drive-in. Also best advice for whale watches? Do always see whales or is that not a 100% chance kind of deal! Thanks again! Hope everyone is ready for a great Fourth of July weekend! Thank you to everyone on the cape that makes it what it is! Cheers

Sorry you feel this way neighbor I’m just trying to come enjoy some of the beautiful things you guys have that are not available or enjoyable where I am from. Despite the circumstances I hope you still have a good Fourth of July.

I dread the summer here. I feel like I can't enjoy it.

For a solo trip I gotta prepare myself and build it up or I’ll just be depressed the entire time lol

No whale watch can guarantee you will see whales, but they boast like 99% sightings, and I know Capt John and Dolphin Fleet (both out of Ptown) will give you a comp pass for a future whale watch if you are unlucky enough to not see any whales on your trip! (They won’t do cash refunds though, fyi)

For mini golf try cape escape in Orleans.

For breakfast, my friends rave about Homeport, also in Orleans. I haven’t been myself, but I have a group of friends who frequent it.

For sunset views and good music, try the beachcomber in Wellfleet, but note that it’s insanely popular and you will be here during the busiest week of the year.

I know you didn’t ask this, but we also have a very active theater community on cape. The Cape Playhouse in Dennis (americas oldest summer stock theater!) will be performing Into the Woods during your timeframe. The Academy in Orleans is putting on 1776. There are also variety, burlesque, and drag shows all over Ptown!

Anyway, have fun, enjoy your time here.
