Things to Do - Kids

For kids
The "big" movie theater with lots of choices. I've always been able to get a seat even at big blockbuster opening weekends. Use a Regal Rewards card and earn free food or tickets.

Go for a walk on the Cape Cod Canal, enjoy the great views. Take Rt. 6A instead of Rt 6 and enjoy the scenery. Afterwards, get a drink at the Fisherman's View Restaurant, they have a rocking bar. Or drive back to Barnstable on 6A and get coffee at Nirvana Coffee.

A must-do for a lot of folks. Just be aware the cruise leaves from Barnstable, not Hyannis! Dock is on the north side of the peninsula, so leave enough travel time.

There are several bike rental companies along the trail so go early to have your pick. At the Brewster end is both a restaurant and the Snowy Owl Cafe (exit from the Trail is marked). It’s a lovely ride but be careful because there are street crossings. Get more info and trail guides at https://www.mass.gov/locations/cape-cod-rail-trail

There is a high speed ferry from the Hyannis Harbor. You can walk to the ferry off Ocean Street in about 15 minutes. Once on the island you can walk or rent a bike. Lots of Historic homes and galleries. Plan on spending the day, the high speed ferry is an hour or so each way and it’s pricey so leave time do do everything you want in one day.
