Lighthouse beach is a public beach about 2 miles down from Chatham Summers. Explore the beach and the lighthouse.
If you're from SLU, this may become your new favorite spot on the Cape. The Squire is one of the most fun restaurants/bars on the Cape. Whether you go for drinks during the day or a seafood dinner at night.
The Cape Cod bike trail starts in Dennis and goes through Orleans. You can take it all the way up to Provincetown. Perfect for runners, cyclers or walkers.
Main Street Chatham is home to many shops & restaurants but a personal favorite is the Candy Manor (across from the Squire). Go there for the best fudge and candy the cape has.
Saquatucket Harbor is not only home to the fast ferry to Nantucket (about 90 minutes one way) but has other great options for touring & discovering Nantucket Sound & Pleasant Bay. Check out the Yankee for fishing or the Perseverance for seal watching.
Charlie and Caroline have a love of sushi and cocktails so when this gem opened up in Chatham one summer, we couldn't miss it. Excellent sushi for lunch or dinner and right on Main Street. Recommend hitting up Candy Manor or Squire before/after as well.
