Skaket Beach with its shallow tidal flats is ideal for families with young children. Pleasant Bay offers islands and marshes perfect for exploring by kayak. In the town of Chatham boutiques, art galleries, fine restaurants and ice cream shops are combined with the quintessential charm of a New England fishing village.
