On the up side, most everything will be available as it is the "unofficial start of summer". On the downside, the place will be crawling with people. Fair warning: the water will be chilly, but less so if you're on the Southern side facing Nantucket Sound. Some of the beaches also require permits, but this varies by town. Finding a large public beach wouldn't be a problem in any event. Traffic will be a problem, but will lessen after Monday.Be aware that a trip from the Cape to the Boston area will take 1-2.5 hours (one way), depending on traffic and starting/ending locations. There is a bus that operates between Boston, Hyannis, and Provincetown (<a href="http://www.p-b.com/)" target="_blank">http://www.p-b.com/)</a>, and there may be others, but it sounds like you're more interested in having the freedom to drive around wherever you'd like. Which reminds me: when driving around, don't expect street signs. They've become larger and more frequent as the years have passed, but many roads (especially ones that are not main roads) are not terribly well-marked.The area is swimming in history, if that's your thing. As mentioned whale watches can be interesting, especially as I would imagine that few large aquatic mammals frequent the New Mexico area. There are a number of rail trails around if you're interested in bicycling or walking. Whereabouts are you staying? That information would help us tailor our suggestions. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
