Take A Seaside Couples Trip To This Stunning East Coast Town
By CAMILA PÉREZ B
Just 80 miles southwest of Boston and tucked away on Cape Cod, the city of Falmouth, Massachusetts, is the perfect couple's getaway with its idyllic backdrop.
Walk along the town's over 68 miles of coastline, savor the views, indulge in delicious local seafood, or relax on some of the Cape's most breathtaking beaches.
Chapoquoit Beach is the ideal spot for a classic Cape Cod sunset. Falmouth Heights Beach is a little more lively, with plenty of snack shops and restaurants just across the street.
Surf Drive Beach is perfect for swimming, and Wood Neck Beach is an excellent destination for boogie boarding and windsurfing. Falmouth also has plenty of nature trails.
From hitting up the Long Pond Trail (3.9 miles) to strolling through the less than a mile-long Quissett Harbor Knob trail, most of the scenic paths are easy to navigate.
With Falmouth's cozy boutique stores, independent bookstores, small bakeries, and restaurants, it's easily walkable and the perfect place to wander hand in hand.
Falmouth boasts a wide array of lodging options that range from hotels with waterfront views to bed and breakfasts to romantic inns and small lodges.
