How to Plan a Gay-Friendly Trip to Provincetown, Massachusetts
- 1). Plan your trip to Provincetown well in advance. Make a list of the types of transportation, accommodations (men, try the Carpe Diem Guesthouse; women, check out the Gull Walk Inn or Gabriel's) and activities you desire or need.
- 2). Research P'town (and Cape Cod) via travel books or the Internet. Look for hot deals on Web travel or auction sites.
- 3). Consider upgrading your travel and/or hotel arrangements since P'town provides for a remarkably reasonable weekend getaway.
- 4). Schedule your trip between the Memorial Day and Labor Day holidays, when the weather's warm and the beaches bustle with bronzed bodies.
- 5). Partake in P'town partying along Commercial Street (men, try the Big Room at the Atlantic House Hotel, Sunday Tea Dance at the Boatslip, after-hours at Spiritus for pizza and people watching; women, pop into the Pied Piper, P'town's premier lesbian dance bar). Size up other singles at P'town's Men's Singles Weekend in November.
- 6). Peruse P'town's many art galleries or savor sumptuous seafood at one of P'town's numerous gastronomic hot spots.
- 7). Comb Herring Cove Beach for casual cruising (left side for women; dunes and breakwater for guys) or hop a schooner for a bit of whale watching.
