1. Chatham<\/b><\/h2>\n

Chatham is a favourite seaside town located on the Southeastern tip of Cape Cod. Chatham is known for Chatham Lighthouse, Chatham Railroad Museum, and Monomoy National Wildlife Refuge, not to mention beautiful beaches, shops, dining, and more. It isn\u2019t as popular as many other Cape Cod towns, making it a great spot for photos and soaking in small-town Cape Cod charm. \ud83d\udc4d<\/span><\/p>\n

Lighthouse Beach and Ridgevale Beach are two of our favourite Cape Cod beaches. These sandy stretches are the perfect place to enjoy the scenery, sunbathe, swim, and, of course, take pictures! \ud83c\udfd6<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

2. Provincetown<\/b><\/h2>\n

Directly above Chatham, on the northernmost tip of the Cape, lies Provincetown. \u2693\ufe0f Provincetown may sound familiar because it\u2019s the site of the Mayflower\u2019s arrival in 1620! Today <\/span>you<\/span><\/i> can get to Provincetown much quicker than via the Mayflower on ferries, buses, or even an easy flight straight from Boston.<\/span><\/p>\n

Provincetown isn\u2019t only beautiful; it\u2019s also remarkably accessible and walkable (we always love a good walkable town), and the downtown charm here makes it a perfect place to take photos in Cape Cod. The town is also incredibly artistic, filled with galleries, studios, and more. Provincetown is also a popular LGBTQ+ destination, welcoming visitors from all over the country and world and celebrating with shows, bars, clubs, restaurants, and more. \ud83c\udff3\ufe0f\u200d\ud83c\udf08 We love Provincetown!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

3. Hyannis<\/b><\/h2>\n

Hyannis is known as the \u201chub\u201d or capital of the Cape. <\/span>\u2763\ufe0f<\/span> The location of the Kennedy compound (namely, Hyannis Port), Hyannis has more to offer than you might realize. The village is small and walkable, with access to both Nantucket and Martha\u2019s Vineyard. Hyannis is often busy year-round and has a wonderful Main Street. Hyannis isn\u2019t only charming and fun; it also offers expansive beaches and an immense variety for taking photos in Cape Cod. Here in Hyannis, there\u2019s something for everyone! \ud83c\udf0a<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

4. Upper Cape<\/b><\/h2>\n

Upper Cape is one of our favourite Cape Cod areas for photos \u2013 it\u2019s beautiful! Upper Cape is a region that consists of Falmouth, Bourne, Sandwich, and Mashpee, and surprisingly, it\u2019s not\u2026 up! \ud83c\udd99 The Upper Cape is the area of Cape Cod nearest the mainland.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our favourite route for photos in this area of Cape Cod is along Town Neck Beach\u2019s rocky shoreline (and the surrounding dunes), followed by a walk down the Sandwich Boardwalk for spectacular views and, in turn, spectacular photos. \ud83d\ude0d<\/span><\/p>\n

Another favourite spot for photos in the Upper Cape is the Knob (in Falmouth). Getting to the Knob requires an easy 15-minute hike \ud83e\udd7e along a narrow peninsula, which leads to the Knob, featuring beautiful vistas overlooking Buzzards Bay. The area offers hiking, swimming, and incredible, Instagrammable views.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Wellfleet \u2013 Duck Harbor Beach is a perfect destination for strolling, collecting shells, enjoying the scenery, and, of course, taking photos! \ud83d\udc1a<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

7. Coast Guard Beach<\/b><\/h2>\n

Coast Guard Beach is one of the busier beaches along the Cape Cod National Seashore, with clean sand, lovely water, beautiful views, and even seals! \ud83e\uddad It\u2019s easy to understand why Coast Guard Beach is such a popular destination, and that\u2019s also why it\u2019s one of our favourite places in the Cape.<\/span><\/p>\n
