Thoreau once said, "The sea-shore is a sort of neutral ground, a most advantageous point from which to contemplate this world." What better reason to go camping than to contemplate this world, whether it be from the perspective of the mountains, the woods, the desert, or the beaches. It's all about getting outdoors and spending some time to immerse your senses into nature.
Cape Cod is such a place, an outdoor vacation destination for many reasons. Some popular outdoor activities that attract many visitors include bicycling, walking the self-guiding nature trails, fishing, shellfishing, whale watching, bird watching, and camping. Choose from several day and weekly camps for kids, and for family camping, from the numerous Cape Cod campgrounds.
For a unique tent camping experience, give some consideration to North of Highland Camping Area, near the tip of Cape Cod. Completely surrounded by Cape Cod National Seashore, with campsites nestled amongst 60 acres of pine trees, and with no RV hookups, this is a great place to go family tent camping. It's just a leisurely half mile walk to Head of the Meadow Beach, so campers here get to enjoy the wonders of the seashore and the enchantment of the pine forests.
