Interesting historical site. Nice views. Walked out onto the jetty to see some sort of duck and other birds. Water was very clear if you're looking for aquatic animals. Jetty is large rocks with gaps between them so not for everyone. This isn't what I consider a "park". It is a small area in the middle of a traffic circle with the historical marker and paver stones around it. The views from the jetty are nice. Parking is along the curb at the outer part of the circle and is limited. Worth the visit for me but it wasn't crowded as I went before the summer season.

History lover, so I gotta give all 5. There is a plaque marking a time capsule that is oddly written entirely in Old English print(the few remaining documents show a more recognizable decorative cursive). Ultimately a very ornate rounded gothic form with no minuscule letters. This makes it very difficult to read! But to take in this commemorated area and accept the constantly changing seascape, imagining how it once may have looked made for quite a nice experience over all, and was the one thing I truly liked most about Provincetown(aside from Ciro & Sal's).

Stumbled across this place as we had a whale watch trip from Hyannis cancelled. When that happens, why waist the day? See where the wind takes you. In our case, here. Parked around the road edge surrounding the very small park. Initially missed the significance of where we had landed. Delighted to have found the marker explaining the real first stepping point of the Mayflower crew and the Founding Fathers. Now I know why they left and set up in nearby Plymouth. Not much to see here in late September. Most cafés were shut. Nice walk along the sea wall though.

On the coastline of Massachusetts' Cape Cod is one of the most beautiful places in New England. My opinion is biased, but the fact is simple: the sunrises and sunsets you can see here are breathtaking... during the summer months, the Pilgrims First Landing Park is never to hot or too cold. You can see boats and people, park and walk around, or otherwise carry on your sight seeing. Located nearby are bathroom facilities and a bike repair stand. It's also right by the public boat launch so you can observe the townspeople in their natural habitat.

This is a tiny park, really just a circle in the road, half grass and half plaza, with a plaque. There is a small amount of parking around the circle. Fir me, and since my childhood in the 1960s, the draw of this location is the breakwater enclosing the marsh and extending to the beach and dunes on the other side. It is a fair walk, but you can cross and even visit the lighthouse on the far side. I've spent countless hours, countless days even, on this breakwater and out on the outer beach. A very special treat indead.

This is a extremely simple memorial at the very very end of town, the review wouldn't be so high were it not for the fact that there's a great outcropping of rocks that you can walk seemingly forever down. Very beautiful out here, great signage about high tide and low tide warnings, I would love to come back here again to see the transformation between the tides.
