New England may have a reputation as being reserved and traditional, but Massachusetts harbors one of the most eccentric towns in the county. Sitting pretty just at the tip of Cape Cod, this coastal colony is the place to go for artistic flair and some truly zany happenings.
Provincetown may well be the most eccentric and colorful town in the state.
It is also an art haven where artists of all kinds gather to create and display their beautiful work. Arts groups such as the Fine Arts Work Center and the Provincetown Art Association and Museum keep things colorful in town.
Provincetown is also known for its gorgeous beaches and picturesque harbor. Take a walk down to the water just a few steps from Commercial Street and enjoy the stunning scenery.
There’s also the towering Pilgrim Monument to climb. It’s the tallest granite structure in America. If you can’t manage the trek up the 252-foot tower, admiring it from below is lovely as well.
