Cape Cod
Looking for itinerary and tips for travel to Cape Cod area?
Hi. My mom and I are planning a trip to the Cape Cod/Martha's Vineyard/Nantucket area. Can anyone suggest some things for our itinerary, sights to see and places to stay? Thanks so much!
I'm not too knowledgeable about Nantucket (except that it is very expensive to visit) but I know about Martha's Vineyard and have been there numerous times.
Oak Bluffs is a fun town to visit on MV, there are lots of shops and restaurants and a nice beach. I have stayed at the Wesley Hotel a couple of times. It's an old updated hotel right on the harbor just steps from everything:

Edgartown on MV is almost the same as Oak Bluffs except it is a little more classier. Beautiful harbor with more upscale shops and restaurants. I've stayed at the Clarion Hotel which is only about a 5-10 minute walk from the center of town and is very nice:

Vineyard Haven is the other big town with lots of shopping and food. I've never stayed there but have visited frequently.
Here is a good website for looking at other things to do on Martha's Vineyard:

The only other suggestion I have is, if you want to save lots of money and aggravation with crowds, go in the off-season which is what I do.
Have fun and good luck!
