Entry to Cape Cod National Seashore's Salt Pond Visitor Center

You might think it's odd that someone who has a home on the Cape would love, love, love a Cape Cod tourist center. But I do!  

It's easy to spend an hour or more here ... watching short films in the theater, perusing the museum, poking around in the gift shop, checking out the children's exhibits, and walking the trail around Salt Pond.

The employees at Salt Pond's information desk are incredibly helpful, too. Need help planning your explorations of the National Seashore area? They have you covered with activity suggestions, maps, and detailed directions to anywhere you'd like to go.

Although it's smaller than the information center at Salt Pond, the Provincelands facility has plenty of info for you, and some pretty cool features, too ... including an observation deck with spectacular views.
