Gay bars hyannis

The first stop on my Cape Cod journey was the town of Hyannis, located about mid-way up the cape. At the suggestion of a friend, I booked a stay at the Sea Street Inna lovely five-bedroom bed and breakfast located just blocks from the ocean and minutes away from the historic Kennedy Compound.

Pride journey on Cape Cod

The property was designed by Adrian and his wife Xenia in and features a beautiful art gallery, sitting area, and dining solarium where guests enjoy breakfast or morning coffee. Adrian is a classically trained French chef who studied under Jean-Georges Vongerichten, so the Sea Street Inn offers a dinner menu that rivals any four-star restaurant.

I had the opportunity to sample some of the best hyannis in recent memory including a delectable smoked trout and brie dish in addition to a crab BLT. Kennedy Hyannis Museuma multimedia exhibit designed to highlight the days JFK spent on Cape Cod relaxing with family, entertaining world leaders, and sailing on the ocean — one of his favorite hobbies.

I decided to take an afternoon adventure to Nantucket on the high-speed ferry, which whisks you to the oasis in about an hour. Even in the winter, Nantucket is gorgeous. With limited time to explore the island, I wasted no time and headed straight to the Whaling Museum to view their Festival of Trees exhibition which transforms the museum into a festive winter wonderland during the month of December.

The highlight of the museum is the Whale Hunt Gallery which explores all aspects of the demanding and dangerous trade of 18th century whaling. The centerpiece of the gallery is the skeleton of a foot male sperm whale, which died on Siasconset Beach on January 1, Nantucket is filled with wonderful boutiques and family-owned restaurants.

I asked around and almost everyone on the island recommended I try the Lola Burger at Lola One of my favorite things to do is pair a burger with a nice glass of Pinot Noir. It was the perfect way to end my journey before heading. About halfway between Hyannis and P-town is The Cape Hyannis Museum of Natural Historya small museum which also serves as a nature education center which is worth visiting if you have some time to spare on your way up the cape.

Driving into Provincetown for the first time was magical. I felt like I was exploring a small island town filled with narrow cobblestone streets, dozens of art galleries, quaint restaurants and, of course, LGBTQ establishments. The more time I spent in P-town, the more I realized why people are in love with this destination. Even the straight community that visits the town is accepting of LGBTQ people and everyone is extremely welcoming and friendly.

One-half of gay space is dedicated to museum-caliber works while the other half serves as a gallery space where people have the opportunity to purchase local art. My room, which was called the Library Room, offered unobstructed bars of both the sunrise and sunset and is located just a few minutes from Herring Cove Beach.

In addition to complimentary breakfast, the inn also offers a daily wine reception where you can mingle with other hotel guests. Surprisingly, was the first time Provincetown held a gay pride festival. Bear Week will take place this July and is an annual gathering of…bears.

To get the bar view of the town, climb to the top of Pilgrim Monument which was constructed to honor the Pilgrims first landing in Provincetown. President Theodore Roosevelt laid the cornerstone in and the foot tower was completed in I tried finding a few less expensive gay to dine and stumbled upon Canteen.
