TRAVELER Magazine Cape Cod
To explore Cape Cod—that Massachusetts refuge of low-key colonial villages and sea-bleached cottages—you should get off the main road and follow your impulses.

Start on the Old King’s Highway (Route 6A), for instance, and go sight-seeing around the inner crescent of Cape Cod Bay. Where 6A rejoins 6 at Orleans, keep going—all the way to the end of this circling peninsula. You’ll take in the counterpart of the Cape’s tranquility—wild, dramatic beaches.
