Cape Cod Canal MA

The Cape Cod Canal is a man-made waterway traversing the narrow neck of land that joins Cape Cod to mainland Massachusetts. Part of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, the canal is roughly 17.4 miles long (approximately 7 of which are cut through land) and connects Cape Cod Bay in the north to Buzzards Bay in the south. It is spanned by the Cape Cod Canal Railroad Bridge and two highway bridges -- the Bourne and the Sagamore.

Cape Cod is a popular tourist destination, featuring miles and miles of beaches, natural attractions, historic sites, art galleries and many excellent restaurants. The area is popular amongst antique enthusiasts and many opportunities exist here for golf, fishing and other outdoor activities. The town of Provincetown, at the very tip of the peninsula, is the site of the first landing of the Pilgrims.
