Truro might be the second to last town before you reach the tip of Cape Cod, but when it comes to natural beauty, this town is second to none.

In addition to its many magnificent beaches, the town also boasts myriad kettle ponds, walking trails, and rivers that provide endless outdoor fun. For over a century, the resplendent natural light that covers Truro’s rolling hills and dunes has drawn artists here from all over the world, including the renowned Edward Hopper, and there remains a culture of creativity that continues to thrive today.

Truro is nestled between Wellfleet and Provincetown in the Outer Cape Region and is 105 miles from Boston. For those who want to skip the traffic, the high speed ferry from in Provincetown offers Truro residents a convenient connection to Boston.

THE PEOPLE AND LIFESTYLE

A few of the area’s best beaches include Coast Guard Beach, Corn Hill Beach, and Head of the Meadow Beach, but there are plenty of fun activities available for land lovers, as well. Whether exploring the Pamet Area Trails or playing a round of golf at Highland Links, Cape Cod’s oldest (and one of its most beautiful) courses, there is never a dull moment.
