Why you should go…

Provincetown sits closer to prime whale feeding grounds than almost any port in the world, and the Dolphin Fleet has been running naturalist-led trips to Stellwagen Bank since 1975. Expect humpbacks breaching, finbacks gliding, and the occasional rare right whale, all narrated by scientists who know these animals by name. It's the single most unforgettable three to four hours you can spend on Cape Cod.
