Due to its long history of tolerance and open-mindedness, Provincetown MA, has been a popular travel destination for gay, lesbian, and straight visitors who have come to love this charming New England seaport.

P-town, as it's affectionately called by locals, is a unique and magical adventure for gay, lesbian, and straight travelers. It is world famous for its endless miles of Cape Cod beaches, charming lodging houses, sand dunes, beech forest trails, cycling paths, and vibrant art community. The menus of local restaurants are filled with some of the finest oysters, clams, lobsters, tuna, and sea bass, all fresh from the seas off Cape Cod. Additionally, no matter the time of year, Provincetown's bustling nightlife and vibrant art community always has something special to offer: theatre and cabaret events, concerts, galleries, art exhibitions, bars, and nightclubs.
