Day 5 :
3h 30 minutes Private Whale Watch Charter
Guided by the experience and knowledge of your captain, you will be taken to an area out of Provincetown, MA., off the waters of Cape Cod, that he has determined to be the most likely for seeing whales.
Since 1986, hunting has been prohibited and whales have stopped here for several months on their way to the Caribbean and South America. Off Cape Cod, you can come across dozens of whales – humpback whales, right whales … – in a single trip.

Have lunch in Provincetown, go for a clam chowder and a lobster roll.
Then explore this typical New England sea side resort.  The first settlers stayed only three months, as they thought that the land was too wild and difficult to cultivate.  It then expanded in the 19th century with the whaling industry.
Immerse yourself in history just by reading plaques on buildings. Blue plaques contain the dates

Day 6:
Spend the day in Nantucket
Take the ferry and cross to Nantucket, « the distant island » as the  Amerindian named it.  The island is still wild and preserved and that therefore gives the impression of being uninhabited.
However, there are tiny village, made of small houses and splendid and vast mansions with gray cedar slats.  This is the heritage of the wealth of whaling captains.  They have now been turned into lavish by the sea houses for rich Bostonian bourgeoisie.
On the windswept beaches, the ocean offers a priceless gift to bathers: seals – you swim among them.
