At Plimoth Plantation in nearby Plymouth, MA, you’ll see a 17th-century village and a Wampanoag home site. Learn more about local history when you check out the Cape Cod Maritime Museum, the Cape Cod Baseball League Hall of Fame and Museum, and the John F. Kennedy Hyannis Museum. Visit the museum’s website before you tour this popular Hyannis attraction to see current exhibits and upcoming events.
Art lovers will enjoy the Hyannis Harbor Arts Center, stroll the HyArts Walk to the Sea, or see folk paintings at the Cahoon Museum of American Art, all just a short drive from our nearby hotels.
Hyannis Harbor offers boating, fishing and whale watching, or take the ferry to Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. Other outdoor activities include hitting the links at the Hyannis Golf Club, bird-watching at the Massachusetts Audubon Long Pasture Wildlife Sanctuary, or trekking the Cape Cod Pathways Trail.
After you’ve worked up an appetite, tour the Cape Cod Potato Chip Factory, have a quick bite in a fish shack, or splurge on a seafood dinner at local restaurants like the Naked Oyster. A visit to Cape Cod Beer is also a must-do Hyannis activity. Go on a brewery tour, or enjoy one of their nearly three dozen flavors. Then, on your way back to your Hyannis hotel, take a pit stop and relax while watching the sunset on Kalmus Beach.
