Cape Cod Family Activities to Enjoy on a Reunion Trip

7 Family Reunion Ideas

One thing to keep in mind when creating an itinerary for a family reunion is the age of your group members. While not every activity will suit everyone, you want to try to make as many adventures appeal to the whole group as possible.

1. If your reunion is taking place during the summer, be sure to catch a Cape Cod Baseball League game. Teams are spread out over 10 towns, and there are games almost every night of the week during the season.
2. Break up into groups and go golfing. Those who want to experience some of the area’s world-class courses can head to Bass River or Dennis Golf. For a more laid-back yet no less challenging course, try Pirate’s Cove Adventure Golf or one of the other nearby mini-golf courses.
3. Enjoy a day at the beach. Our private shoreline is the perfect place to build sandcastles, go for a swim, and play volleyball.
4. If you have anyone in your family who loves getting out on the water, rent kayaks from Bass River Kayaks & Paddleboards. Open seasonally, this West Dennis service offers single and tandem rentals.
5. Book a trip to Monomoy. The barrier island off the coast of Chatham is home to a wildlife refuge known for its seal population. The best way to reach it is on a boat ride with Monomoy Island Excursions.
6. Load up the cars and make the short drive to the Whydah Pirate Museum. This interactive science museum features real treasures and the stories of real pirates. If your group is larger than 15, check out their group visit options.
7. End each night around the bonfire. Stock up on s’mores and relax under the New England sky, swapping family stories.
