Harwichport, Cape Cod is a popular summer get away destination. Located just before the 'elbow' of the Cape, Harwich is perfectly situated....just 30 minutes over the bridges, 15 minutes to Hyannis & 30 minutes to Provincetown. High Speed Nantucket ferry is ½ mile away as are supermarkets, Go-Carts, Trampolines, Library, & Cape Cod League Baseball games! Harwich is located on Nantucket Sound, with miles of white, sandy beaches. Fresh-water ponds abound as well. The 743-acre Long Pond is great for swimming and canoeing.
With four well-protected harbors, Harwich is popular with boaters. Wychmere Harbor is one of the world’s most photographed harbors. In August, Harwichport hosts 'Sails Around the Cape,' a 140-nautical mile boat race that circumnavigates the Cape. For hikers, there are more than 600 acres of conservation land. The Cape Cod Rail Trail runs through town along an abandoned railbed-bikers pass by salt marshes, cranberry bogs, and ponds. Band concerts are Wednesday nights.
