Great place to vacation. Provincetown has great accomodations, lots to do, and great restaurants. It has great art galleries and entertainment venues. I continue to vacation there.

Open air and water all accessible by bike. Even had an outdoor shower by the restroom. So grateful for the national park. Worth the trip to P-town alone!

The sand is soft and clean. The beach is so peaceful.. If you're lucky, you'll spot a whale or two from the shore :)
