7 Easy East Coast Weekend Getaways - Travel+Leisure

In the summer, it’s hard to top Cape Cod, home of picturesque lighthouses, seafood shacks, and beautiful beaches. But even in the winter months, the town’s mild weather, plentiful golf courses, and breweries and wineries, welcome visitors.

From Boston, the trip is just over an hour by car or two-and-a-half hours via CapeFLYER, the weekend passenger train service. If you’re coming from New York City, you might want to take a long weekend as the drive to the Cape from the city can take over five hours each way. But the shift in landscape and pace is well worth the trip. 

From April to October, head out to sea with Hyannis Whale Watcher Cruises to spot migrating humpback whales. Or take a leisurely hike along the Cape Cod National Seashore, a 40-mile stretch of unspoiled sandy beach that is home to historic lighthouses, monuments, and dunes. Golfers will have 27 public courses and 15 private facilities to choose from, while art buffs will be blown away by the galleries found in every town and village on Cape Cod. After you’ve explored the Cape, hop on a ferry from Hyannis Harbor to visit the nearby islands of Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket.

The historic (and visually stunning) Captain Linnell House has a series of intimate dining rooms that deliver romance and elegance. Or, for a laid-back meal, head to the Lobster Pot, a Cape Cod landmark that serves up seafood classics with bay views.

For a true Cape Cod experience, stay at the Honeysuckle Hill Inn, a quaint bed-and-breakfast near the popular Sandy Neck Beach. Those looking to be part of history, can stay at The Inn at Cape Cod, a private mansion turned boutique hotel that’s almost 200 years old and sits adjacent to 100 acres of nature reserve.
