1. Shining Sea Bikeway

Reviewed By MingO_11 - Boston, United States
This is arguably the most scenic bike trail in Cape Cod. It has almost everything Cape Cod bike trails have to offer: the marsh, the cranberry bog, picturesque cape towns, and of course the shining sea. A few tips: Near the Woods Hole terminus of the trail, there is a very good bakery called Pie in the Sky, which is a good stop to refuel. Also from there, the Nobska lighthouse is close by (~1 mile away), which also worth a side trip.

As you turn into the road leading to the lighthouse you are struck by the beautiful view of the ocean to your right. The lighthouse is on a hill to the left. The view from the lighthouse is gorgeous and a great place to take pictures.
