Labor Day weekend marks the last hurrah for summer in Cape Cod. This hooked peninsula, which extends outward from the mainland into the Atlantic Ocean, is a popular getaway for vacationers all over the country, and Labor Day is a great time to experience Cape Cod before many of the seasonal shops and businesses close up for the winter.

Visitors can feel the first breezes of autumn on some of the last summer boat tours around the bay or soak up some of the final rays of summer on the beaches of Cape Cod National Seashore before enjoying a meal of fresh clams or other seafood at one of the many small food shacks in the area.
