Harwich’s number one attraction is its beaches, and with 22 salt and fresh water beaches it’s easy to see why. Check out Harwich’s beautiful sprawling beaches. Or if you like sailing on pristine waters, trying your hand at landing a tuna or striped bass, or the quieter pleasure of fly fishing on beautiful fresh water ponds or kayaking on meandering waterways, it is all here in Harwich.
Harwich boasts of a strong creative community with wonderful artists, artisans, antique shops, galleries, live theatre and musical offerings.
With seasonal arts & crafts festivals, including the famous Harwich Cranberry Festival (a September tradition), Art in the Park, band concerts and jazz festival, and a strong year-round artistic community, Harwich celebrates Cape Cod’s heritage of culture and creativity.
Stroll our charming villages and streets and visit the boutiques, antique shops, and galleries along the way, then catch a play at Harwich Junior Theatre or the Cape Playhouse.
During the summer, take in a Harwich Mariners baseball game – part of the Cape Cod Baseball League that features outstanding college baseball players. Attend a concert at Brooks Park in Harwich Center and join in the fun of the Harwich Port Musical Strolls.
Celebrate Harwich’s marine and agricultural heritage by visiting local farms and bogs, attending Harwich Farm Fest and enjoying the multi-day crafts, carnival, food and fun of the Harwich Cranberry Festival.
