Engaging Getaways and Venues for:
USA/New England: Wellfleet, MA
Wellfleet is located 105 miles by car from Boston but takes more than two hours because some of the route consists of two-lane Route 6. During the summer, try to avoid traveling to Cape Cod on Friday evenings and Saturday mornings when traffic can be brutal. Leaving Cape Cod, it is best to avoid mid-day Saturday and Sunday.
Some public transportation is available, but you’ll need a car or at least a bicycle to get around the area.
