Today, specifically
- 5:15 PM: Menauhant Beach, quick dip in flat 72° water before the light goes golden; N wind keeps it clean and calm.
- 6:45 PM: The Knob at Quissett Harbor, a locals' quiet sunset walk with views west, perfect 20 minutes before 8:18 PM.
- 8:30 PM: Quicks Hole Tavern, harbor-view tacos and a drink while the ferry lights come on; stay loose, they're open til 10.
Tip: Water's warm, wind's offshore, and the evening light is the best reason to leave your chair right now. Quicks Hole gets busy after dark but still holds its ease.
Always a good bet
North Falmouth → Woods Hole
Shining Sea Bikeway
10.7 flat coastal miles, marsh to harbor; you don't have to do all of it (most do)
Main St
Maison Villatte
a real French bakery; croissants gone by 9:30 on weekends (closed Mon/Tue)
Woods Hole
Nobska Lighthouse
the classic sunset: views to the Vineyard, 12 minutes on foot from the ferry dock
Downtown
Surf Drive Beach
public-access and walkable from Main Street; the cold shower at the end is necessary and correct
Go on, then. The day isn't going to spend itself.
