Resembling a flexed arm, Cape Cod is renowned and much loved for its grass-covered dunes, long stretches of beautiful beaches, lobster and clam shacks, restrained development, and its unpretentious style.

Cape Cod, and the neighboring islands of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket, have a true New England feel to them, with cedar-shingled cottages, deeply ingrained boating culture and an abundance of pretty seaside towns, perfect for watching the yachts while enjoying a lobster roll.

There's excellent sailing and motor yachting throughout Nantucket Sound to the south of Cape Cod, leaving from Falmouth or Hyannis. A must visit port is Edgartown on Martha's Vinyard, an incredibly quaint and home of the preppy look complete with whale belts and faded red shorts.

Nantucket is charming and relaxed as well, and in addition to its centuries-old whaling heritage, has recently become a main summer destination of the super rich. It boasts great beaches, unspoiled grasslands, excellent fishing, and the pretty Old Town of Nantucket with excellent shopping.
