Curling nearly 11 miles past woodlands, marshes, salt ponds and seascape, the Shining Sea Bikeway is the only bikeway on Cape Cod to skirt the shore. The paved trail extends from County Route 151 in Falmouth to Wood's Hole, a historical seaside fishing village and home to an internationally known scientific community. You'll experience beautiful views of the Vineyard Sound & gorgeous flowers as you make your way to Woods Hole's adorable main street with shops and small cafes & restaurants. A "must do" for outdoor enthusiasts.
