Several whale-watching services operate out of Provincetown, but we've found the Dolphin Fleet to be consistently the best. Among the species spotted last year were humpbacks, minkes, right whales, finbacks, and now and again a pod of dolphins. Aboard every trip are marine biologists from the Center for Coastal Studies. An experienced staff led by Captain Paul Donovan not only teaches kids how to fish, but cheerfully cleans whatever they pull in. Infectious, even if you occasionally find baseball to be slow going.
Admission is free.
Inside the museum, kids can learn all there is to know about lobsters, horseshoe crabs, starfish, frogs, turtles, and even the lowly herring. All Rights Reserved.
