Harwich is a charming Cape Cod base with salt‑air beaches, peaceful harbors, bike‑friendly trails and a vibrant summer arts and seafood scene — perfect for unwinding after shifts with kayaking, farmers’ markets, local festivals and the Cape Cod Rail Trail close by.
For extras, Hyannis (15–20 minutes) offers ferries, regional flights and more dining/shopping options, and Providence (about an hour) provides big‑city cultural and shopping choices if you want a day trip.
