Took my 15-yr. old granddaughter for a new adventure for both of us. I love to fish but have never done deep sea fishing by boat--I can get seasick easily. Since this fishing adventure was kid-focused, I didn't think I would have any problems. We did go far out but was not sick at all. We all caught fish; 7 each for granddaughter and I. Great experience for all.

Local actors present various plays on small informal stage. Very entertaining time. If you enjoy live theatre, take time to see a show.

This beach is actually a succession of a few, separated by jetties...family friendly, well patrolled by lifeguards. I do wish there was better cleanup by folks who visit, but I would go back.

Nicknamed "Smugglers," this beach is family friendly, large and has a pier that overlooks Bass River and the many sail and motor boats going out to sea. The beach also has a Sunrise Sunday Methodist mass/service @ 7:30 am. The beach is clean and has a Snack Bar with beach eats and public bathrooms. Lifeguards are on duty. Beware NO DOGS allowed.
5. Devil's Purse Brewing Co

Reviewed By HaverhillJim - Haverhill, Massachusetts
Kolsch, ESB, and Session were very good. Funk was awesome. Our trio of hop heads did not dig the IPA nor pale ale - maybe we've been too spoiled with other New England IPAs (Sip of Sunshine, Heady, Trillium, Leatherlips, Harpoon, Tributary, etc.) Maybe the tap lines were a little dirty; those beers just didn't taste good. It was a muddy, off flavor that created a distracting aftertaste. But of course, you should make your own opinion on this.
It's located in an industrial park like Mayflower or From The Barrel Brewing, cute tasting room just a few feet from the fermenters. The decor and bar in the tasting room was very cool, a little industrial, a little craftsman with great signs/posters on the walls. But you are essentially standing in a garage / warehouse.
We went early in the season and it was still pretty crowded (20+ people), we were getting pushed out the door by groups of college kids - and then brewery staff scolded us for stepping one foot outside the open garage door. It must be a violation of a local code or something.
The one guy working in the brewery was very nice, one server was also very pleasant, the other server was constantly distracted on her cell phone. Sadly, that's the server that put together our "to go" order and accidentally gave us Pale Ale instead of Session. Very disappointed when we got home. It tasted a little better from the can, but not much.
Anyway, this is a great thing to do if you are in the area. It's always good to support local beer, and I look forward to more good things from these guys as they expand. A restroom and outdoor seating would be awesome.
6. Cuffy's of Cape Cod

Reviewed By CraftBeers - Plano, Texas
We visited dozens of places in Chatham to find the right shirt and fleece to take home. We had gifts to buy for the owners of the house in Chatham. We also had gifts to bring back home. Cuffy's is by far the best place. I love the quality of the shirts and sweatshirts.
The one story building is much bigger than most stores throughout Chatham. It's a cute clapboard building painted white. Inside, there is lots of open space with white, yellow and slate accent colors adding to the openness. The floors are pretty wood planking. They have two huge sand sculptures built in different rooms. For a shirt shop, it's beautiful.
We ended up purchasing shirts, sweatshirts, fleece, coffee mugs and saltwater taffy. This store is pretty to look at. It's wide open with lots of space. They have quality nice looking clothing. I thinks it's better than most shops we visited.
7. Cape Cod Lavender Farm

My wife and I aren't gardeners--we live on the eighth floor of a condominium in downtown Chicago--but we love to have fresh flowers in our home, especially lillies, so when someone suggested that we stop at the Cape Cod Lavender Farm during our visit to this Massachusetts wonderland...well, we figured it might be a refreshing way to spend a summer afternoon. It was. On a patch of land overlooking Island Pond in Harwich on the lower Cape, on Island Pond Trail off Weston Woods Road, owner Cynthia Sutphin planted 400 lavender plants in the early 1990s. Today, her family runs one of the largest lavender farms on the East Coast with more than 14,000 plants in seemingly endless varieties. We were introduced to Grosso, a French favorite with a strong scent, Hidcote pink, which smells like peaches, and Harwich Blue, a dark indigo hybrid developed on the farm. You can buy individual potted plants, fresh-picked bouquets to dry and all sorts of products sprung from the farm's bounty, including Sachets, handmade skincare products and even edibles, like the very popular Lavender-Lemon Marmalade. Trust me, lavender jelly is treat that rivals raspberry, strawberry and blueberry. For relaxation, take a stroll through the fields and marvel at aisle after aisle of blue-grey-purple mounds and scent, lavender mingling with the salty breeze off Cape Cod. We missed the celebrated June/July harvest but the gift shop offers a wide-ranging variety of uses for lavender, from food and drink (did I mention that lavender lemonade is a real treat?) to body and home with lavender bath salts, lavender essential oil, lavender body butter, candles, soaps and washes. Then relax in the shade garden with plantings around a miniature stone replica of a medieval castle. Visiting Cape Cod Lavender Farm is a unique experience. Have you ever been to a lavender farm?

Check their schedule of events; they have live music performances at night and on-going art shows. For music shows, it's set-up like a club, with tables around the dance floor. AND you can "Bring Your Own" to the shows. Very cool place.

Just went striper fishing with Seamus. What an experience! We brought in lots of stripers in only a half day trip. Seamus is super knowledgeable and is patient with the most novice of fishermen! This is our third year going out with him and the trip never disappoints! Sign me up for next year!
