Pleasant Bay & Surrounding Area
A breathtaking setting for your unforgettable adventure.
Pleasant Bay stretches 13 scenic miles along Chatham, Orleans, Harwich, and Brewster. The windswept dunes of the Cape Cod National Seashore protect its calm waters.
Explore Chatham Harbor, home to elegant seaside estates, a historic lighthouse, and a bustling fish pier. Get up close to hundreds of seals lounging on sandbars or escape to the Outer Beach—a secluded, boat-access-only barrier island ideal for beachcombing and picnicking.
Beyond the bay, the Atlantic Ocean awaits with world-class fishing, whale watching, and trips to Nantucket.
For those seeking an adrenaline rush, exclusive shark alley tours are a thrilling encounter with the ocean’s most formidable predator!
The Wequassett Resort & Golf Club
