Provincetown is a colorful, fascinating little town situated at the tip of the Cape Cod peninsula.

This delightful place is packed with clapboard houses, riotously colorful gardens and tiny winding streets. Despite a declining fishing fleet, the town thrives, attracting a wide spectrum of people, including a lively gay community.

Artists live side by side with fishermen and during the summer Commercial Street is filled with urbane visitors exploring the art galleries and small restaurants.
