Cape Cod Yacht Charter Guide

Synonymous with whale watching, fishing, the Kennedys, and Provincetown, Cape Cod is a unique and diverse yacht charter destination. Its charming villages, abundant waterfront seafood shacks, and dramatic ocean beaches have made this peninsula a perennially popular vacation destination for luxury yacht charters. Surrounded entirely by water, charter yachts, anglers, and sailors that venture here are guided by the same historic shoreline lighthouses that guided the ships of old to safety around the treacherous sandbars and shoals.

In the summer months, the harbours and marinas of Cape Cod bustle with sailing yachts, fishing charters, and luxury superyachts as visitors pull on their flip flops and enjoy snacking on fresh oysters and fried clams down on the beachfront. Cape Cod life is all about good food, sandy beaches, and relaxing with friends and family.

Cape Cod attracts artists, musicians, and writers to its shores throughout the seasons, drawn to this region for its abundant sense of freedom and creativity as well as its awe-inspiring beauty. Here you will find hundreds of art galleries displaying everything from the most contemporary American art to the works of the great American masters. Cape Cod is known for other cultural offerings, too - with 83 museums and theatres to choose from, it has been noted as one of the top 25 art destinations by America Style Magazine. From the John F. Kennedy Museum in Hyannis to the Provincetown Art Museum at the very tip of the Cape, there is something to satisfy every interest and taste here.

Fishing charters are a popular choice for many visitors to this region, keen to spend a day or two fishing well-stocked water where Striped Bass, Bluefish, Flounder, Mackerel, and Blue Fin Tuna can be found, practically all year-round.

The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution is a must for any sailor or yachtsman. This not-for-profit institution is a world leader in oceanographic research, and visitors can learn about scientific vessels and tools of research, as well as other important work that is being done. On land, Cape Cod is a thriving sports hub, with nine baseball franchises and no fewer than 42 premiere golf courses for those who fancy brushing up on their swing whilst on vacation.
