Plymouth is a historic town with many attractions and adventures to be enjoyed. Deep sea fishing is available as well as whale watching boat trips out of scenic Plymouth Harbor. It is also possible to take a boat trip to Provincetown on the tip of Cape Cod. There is dining for all tastes and budgets as well as interesting shops for browsing. You may visit the 17th century at Plimoth Plantation, an accurate interpretation of the Pilgrim Village of 1627. The Mayflower II, Pilgrim Hall and various wonderful house museums provide a fun and educational day's outing. The cranberry harvest in the fall is particularly scenic and colorful. Plymouth is one hour drive from Boston (bus and train transportation available), 20 minutes from Cape Cod with all its summer attractions, one hour from Newport RI with its magnificent mansions, and two hours from Portsmouth NH, home of Strawberry Bank Restoration. Ferry and plane service are available to Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket Islands. Red Sox baseball games in Boston are important summer events.
