One of the rare restaurants that work with local weir fishermen as well as day boats, Pisces offers an ever-changing menu that’s a cheat sheet for the fish currently swimming in Cape waters. Its “coastal cuisine” draws on world sources, but the spicing is always secondary to the flavor of the fish itself. Named a 2016 Yankee Editors’ Pick for “Best Fresh Fish.”

Since 1885, top college players have shown their mettle every summer in the 10-team Cape Cod League — and in Chatham, local fans cheer on the Anglers. Ballplayers join the community, working part-time, and living with local families. Admission to regular-season games (each team plays 44 games) – at ballfields from Wareham to Orleans – is by donation. That’s a small price to watch tomorrow’s Major Leaguers play. Named a 2013 Yankee Editors’ Pick for “Best Pure Baseball.”

From Chatham Seaside Links:
Chatham Seaside Links was built in 1895 as part of the Chatham Bars Inn resort but the course has since been taken over by the town of Chatham and is currently run by Johnson Golf Management. It is a compact, very playable 9-hole course that is centrally located right in downtown Chatham. Though it is a smaller course, golfers of all levels are sure to find some challenges here. It is first come first served and is never too long of a wait during the summer season. The holes consist of mostly par 3's and 4's. A great track to play a quick round and then have the rest of the day left for beaches and exploring Chatham. Carts and rental clubs are available.
