Cape Cod and its magical beaches are a world-famous destination whose evocative name and position on the Atlantic coast entice travellers to go exploring. And the town of Hyannis is no exception. Located on the southern shoreline of the peninsula, the town is not only well known for beaches such as Kalmus Park, but it is also a jumping-off point for ferries to Nantucket Island. Fans of past US president John F Kennedy will also find much to interest them at the museum that documents his family’s many vacations to the cape during his life. The harbour is home to a maritime museum documenting the area’s boat-building and intimate links to the ocean. Whatever the reason for your visit, the cape’s popularity among visitors means there is plenty of accommodation available in the area. Read on for some of the best Vrbo vacation rentals in Hyannis Port, Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
