You may not need a reason to take a break, but here are five that resonate with most of our visitors.
1. Celebrate Life’s Special Moments
A special occasion always deserves special attention. Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, anniversary, retirement, or a significant occurrence in your life or your partner’s, make it unique by planning something meaningful to mark the occasion. Perhaps you wish to gather friends and family for a party or just remember the day with an intimate dinner for two. Choose a destination that has meaning for you both. Because in the words of Dr. Seuss, “You never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.”
2. Explore Local Art and Culture
Adding a little culture to your getaway always takes it up a notch. Cape Cod is rich with many entertainment venues, including music, theater, and the arts. Literally across the street from the Captain Farris House, the Cape Cod Cultural Center offers a diverse menu of programs to suit anyone’s taste. Culinary arts, visual arts, and so much more attract locals and visitors alike. The vast array of cultural opportunities on Cape Cod will undoubtedly astound you and keep you coming back for more every season.
3. Romantic Dining Experiences
In our opinion, the opportunity to try new restaurants ups the ante on any romantic getaway. And here on Cape Cod, we do not lack extraordinary dining adventures. Intimate cafes and bistros, fine dining in unique settings, and a dedication to serving only the freshest locally sourced and regional-inspired dishes are the hallmarks of Cape Cod’s finest restaurants.
4. Rekindle Your Love Affair
A change of venue always inspires a chance to try something new when it comes to spending quality time with your loved ones. Taking a walk through a nature preserve, riding a bike through a salt marsh, or admiring the sunset on a beach just seems to speak to the soul when you’re with someone you love. A weekend or midweek stay on Cape Cod, a treasure trove of natural beauty, will leave you with lasting memories and a desire to visit more often.
5. Go Back in Time to a Simpler Lifestyle
Turn back the clock and visit some of the most fascinating historic spots that shaped this unique destination. Pirates and whaling captains, as did authors, artists, and one note-worthy former president, found this spot captivating. From quirky museums to magnificent historic homes, Cape Cod captures the imagination of history buffs from near and far. Take a ride along historic Route 6A, the Old Kings Highway, for a view of the past that has been so lovingly protected.
Clearly, there are more than five reasons to escape to Cape Cod for a romantic getaway. But these suggestions may help you form a plan to ditch the routine and spend time with your significant other, rediscovering the love that brought you together in the first place.
