Start your day at:
Grab breakfast at Viv's Kitchen or Homeport. We recommend the Portuguese Sunset breakfast sandwich at Viv's and the stuffed sweetened ricotta French toast at Homeport.
Spend your morning:
Browsing the shops on Main Street or swinging by the Farmer's Market on Saturday mornings. You can check out their schedule at orleansfarmersmarket.org.
Grab lunch at:
We're big fans of the Land-Ho, they have great chowder and you always see someone you know!
Spend your afternoon:
Orleans has a stunning network of trails, we love to take our dog on a different trail every weekend. You can find a map of the trails at orleansconservationtrust.org.
Indulge in a treat at:
We love to grab a sweet treat at Ice Cream Cafe -- they have pup cups! You know it's good when the lines are long, but don't worry, they move fast!
End your day at:
Watch the sunset at Skaket Beach and grab a cocktail at La Bella Vita (and dinner too!). The fire pits are great to keep you warm during the early summer months.
Bonus -- Hidden Gem or Insider Tip:
You don't want to miss out on the stuffies at the Yardarm! They're the best around!
