Truro is a hidden gem on Cape Cod with stunning beaches, natural attractions, and delicious food. You don't want to miss this outer Cape town.
TRURO offers miles of shoreline, trails and outdoor attractions to explore as well as must-visit local businesses.
The Cape Cod National Seashore takes up more than half of the area, making it easy to find an incredible spot to set up camp on a beach overlooking the Atlantic Ocean on which to spend a few hours relaxing or taking in nature: Ballston Beach, Longnook Beach, Head of the Meadow Beach or High Head Beach. Or go to Corn Hill Beach, Cold Storage Beach, Fisher Beach on the bayside for great views of Provincetown.
For even more exploration of the great outdoors, paddle down the Pamet River and into Pamet Hollow, hike on Pilgrim Spring Trail, or climb up to the Jenny Lind Tower or Bearberry Hill Eastern Summit for some spectacular views. Complete your Truro landmark bingo with a trip to Highland Light and the Highland House Museum.
Salty Market Farmstand and Days Market are essential for breakfast favorites on the go, picnic supplies and sustenance for a day of outdoor endeavors. Chequessett Chocolate is your destination for small batch, artisanal chocolate and edible gifts. Just around the corner is Truro Vineyards & South Hollow Spirits, a gathering place and occasional music venues for friends, wine lovers, and local artisans. Also down the street is Atlantic Spice Company, where you can find kitchen essentials, spices, and hard to find home goods.
The acts at Payomet Performing Arts Center make a drive to the outer Cape well worth it. This volunteer-driven nonprofit’s mission is to produce exciting professional live music, theater and circus arts events rooted in strong social values and they absolutely deliver. Before an evening at the PPAC, grab dinner and libations overlooking the ocean at the Top Mast Cafe, homestyle Italian at Montano's, surf and turf with panache Blackfish, or classic Cape cuisine at Captain's Choice. Savory & the Sweet Escape remains the perfect place to put your sugar craving to bed with a rich slice of confected heaven.
