Scargo Tower - OPEN AS OF JUNE 2021

An optional detour takes us past the fish-shaped Scargo Lake. According to Nauset legend, this lake was built by a great chieftain to comfort his daughter, who could not stop weeping over three dead fish. We'll also learn about the Nauset party who first spotted the Mayflower, and the fears they had about its approach.

2

Harwich

Another optional detour takes us to Harwich, a quaint Cape town known for its numerous beautiful beaches. If you fancy a swim, this is one of the best places on the Cape for it!

3

Bank Street Beach

Next, our Harwich detour will take us to Bank Street Beach, the perfect place to relax or dip your toes into the Atlantic.

4

Eastham

As we continue our drive, we'll enter Eastham, a perfectly picturesque little Colonial town. We'll also hear about the embattled first encounter between the Pilgrims and the Nauset, the daring assistance offered by Squanto, and the very first Thanksgiving, where the Pilgrims and Nauset celebrated a truce.

5

First Encounter Beach

Continuing down the Cape, we'll arrive at First Encounter Beach, where that dramatic skirmish between Nauset and Pilgrims took place. The beach now bears a plaque commemorating the encounter and the eventual truce.

6

Salt Pond Visitor Center

A little farther on, we'll arrive at the Salt Pond Visitor Center. This miniature museum is the perfect opportunity to catch up on some extra Cape history, use the bathroom, or just stretch your legs.

7

Nauset Light

As we continue our drive up the Cape, we'll spot the Nauset Light, the quaint little lighthouse that features in every quintessential Cape Cod photograph. We'll also learn about its importance, and how the Cape's rough waters earned the nickname of "ocean graveyard" before the lighthouse was built.

8

Nauset Lighthouse

As we continue our drive up the Cape, we'll spot the Nauset Light, the quaint little lighthouse that features in every quintessential Cape Cod photograph.

9

The Three Sisters Lighthouses

Continuing our drive, we'll come to three squat white lighthouses called the Three Sisters Lighthouses. What's peculiar about these lighthouses is that they're not on the coast at all! They're actually nestled among a thicket of trees pretty far inland. Hear about why that is, and how they came to be there. We'll also learn about how the Cape transformed from Nauset land to Colonial fishing towns, and then from fishing towns to a tourist hotspot.

10

Marconi Wireless Station

As we continue driving, we'll pass Marconi Station, the first radio station to ever send a wireless message across the Atlantic! The station also played a pivotal role in an infamous oceanic tragedy: the sinking of the Titanic in 1912. Learn how a radio station hundreds of miles away saved lives on that fateful day!

11

Pilgrim Spring Trail

As we continue driving, we'll pass the Pilgrim Spring Trail, a short hike which leads to one of the first places the Pilgrims came after landing on the Cape. Here, the weary travelers found their first freshwater spring--an essential find in helping them survive. Afterward, we'll continue on toward Provincetown.

12

Pilgrim's First Landing Park

Finally, we'll end up where it all began: the site where the Mayflower first struck land. Explore the park and imagine what it must have been like for the settlers, after ten harrowing weeks at sea, to step onto Nauset soil right here on November 11th, 1620. Our tour officially ends at this historic stop.

Tour Scargo - OUVERTE À PARTIR DE JUIN 2021

Un détour facultatif nous emmène au-delà du lac Scargo en forme de poisson. Selon la légende de Nauset, ce lac a été construit par un grand chef pour réconforter sa fille, qui ne pouvait s'empêcher de pleurer sur trois poissons morts. Nous découvrirons également le groupe Nauset qui a repéré le Mayflower pour la première fois et les craintes qu'ils avaient à propos de son approche.

50

Harwich

Un autre détour facultatif nous emmène à Harwich, une ville pittoresque du Cap connue pour ses nombreuses belles plages. Si vous avez envie de nager, c'est l'un des meilleurs endroits du Cap !

51

Plage de la rue Bank

Ensuite, notre détour par Harwich nous mènera à Bank Street Beach, l'endroit idéal pour se détendre ou plonger les orteils dans l'Atlantique.

52

Eastham

En poursuivant notre route, nous entrerons dans Eastham, une petite ville coloniale parfaitement pittoresque. Nous entendrons également parler de la première rencontre assiégée entre les pèlerins et les Nauset, l'aide audacieuse offerte par Squanto et le tout premier Thanksgiving, où les pèlerins et les Nauset ont célébré une trêve.

53

Plage de la première rencontre

En continuant vers le cap, nous arriverons à First Encounter Beach, où cette escarmouche dramatique entre Nauset et Pilgrims a eu lieu. La plage porte maintenant une plaque commémorant la rencontre et la trêve éventuelle.

54

Centre d'accueil des visiteurs de Salt Pond

Un peu plus loin, nous arriverons au Salt Pond Visitor Center. Ce musée miniature est l'occasion idéale de rattraper son retard sur l'histoire du Cap, d'utiliser la salle de bain ou simplement de se dégourdir les jambes.

55

Lumière Nauset

Alors que nous continuons notre route jusqu'au Cap, nous apercevrons le Nauset Light, le petit phare pittoresque qui figure dans toutes les photographies typiques de Cape Cod. Nous découvrirons également son importance et comment les eaux agitées du Cap lui ont valu le surnom de "cimetière de l'océan" avant la construction du phare.

56

57

Les phares des Trois Sœurs

Poursuivant notre route, nous arriverons à trois phares blancs trapus appelés les phares des Trois Sœurs. La particularité de ces phares, c'est qu'ils ne sont pas du tout sur la côte ! Ils sont en fait nichés dans un bosquet d'arbres assez loin à l'intérieur des terres. Découvrez pourquoi et comment ils en sont arrivés là. Nous découvrirons également comment le Cap s'est transformé de la terre de Nauset en villes de pêcheurs coloniales, puis de villes de pêcheurs en un haut lieu touristique.

58

Station sans fil Marconi

Pendant que nous continuons à conduire, nous passerons devant la station Marconi, la première station de radio à envoyer un message sans fil à travers l'Atlantique ! La station a également joué un rôle central dans une tristement célèbre tragédie océanique : le naufrage du Titanic en 1912. Découvrez comment une station de radio située à des centaines de kilomètres a sauvé des vies en ce jour fatidique !

59

Sentier du printemps des pèlerins

Pendant que nous continuons à conduire, nous passerons le Pilgrim Spring Trail, une courte randonnée qui mène à l'un des premiers endroits où les pèlerins sont venus après avoir atterri au Cap. Ici, les voyageurs fatigués ont trouvé leur première source d'eau douce - une découverte essentielle pour les aider à survivre. Ensuite, nous continuerons vers Provincetown.

60

Parc du premier débarquement du pèlerin

Enfin, nous finirons là où tout a commencé : le site où le Mayflower a frappé pour la première fois. Explorez le parc et imaginez ce que cela a dû être pour les colons, après dix semaines éprouvantes en mer, de marcher sur le sol de Nauset ici même le 11 novembre 1620. Notre visite se termine officiellement à cette étape historique.
