I have an opportunity to use a cottage on the beach in Provicetown any time I would like. I have never been to the East Coast and am wondering what is a goodtime, weatherwise, to go.
Someone suggested late May...
any other thoughts on a good time to go.
Thanks |

| Late May or just after Labor Day. This is either prior to or after the height of the tourist/summer season. This would give you more time and space to enjoy the ocean, restaurants, etc. Otherwise, you will find the Cape can get pretty congested with traffic and people. At those times, most of the shops, restaurants, etc. are open. Some, not as many as before, close for the season so going close to either end of the summer season will allow you to take advantage of what Provincetown has to offer without the crowds. You will probably need a car, and maybe want to see the other parts of Cape Cod as well. I prefer going to the Cape on the off-season - even into October. But, this would be a colder time for you. At least in mid-September or late May you will probably have some relatively warmer days for the beach. |

Thanks for your reply. We have decided that we are going June 8 for that week. My friend owns 14 cottages and 6 houses so having a place to stay is not a problem We won't need a car either.
We are so flexible about the whole trip.
We aren't interested in beach time....we just want to relax, sit on the deck and drink coffee and "play tourist"
Should be a fun trip.
Have you ever taken Cape Air from Boston over??? Am wondering just how small those planes are.....We may do that instead of the ferry. |

| I assume you are taking Cape Air from Logan Airport to the Cape? Does Ptown have an airport? Anyway, there is always a line at Logan for Cape Air. Not sure how small/large those planes are but they are constantly in use..if that helps. |
