Winter Excursions on Cape Cod: The Museum Of Natural History

Touring Cape Cod in Winter

Don’t let the cold keep you away from Cape Cod in winter. This is the perfect time of year to pack up the car and visit this beautiful part of New England. And, one of the best things to do on Cape Cod in winter is to visit the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History in Brewster, MA!


Fun and Unique

This is no ordinary Cape Cod museum – no way! The Cape Cod Museum of Natural History focuses on all facets of Cape Cod’s rich history and diverse wildlife. In fact, it is 17,000 square feet of interactive, educational fun for the whole family!


Natural Learning Environment

Founded in 1954, the museum’s main building consists of two floors of exhibits focused on all the varied flora and fauna of the Cape Cod area.


With a mission of encouraging and advancing understanding of our natural environment through discovery and learning, the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History includes exhibits on birds, whales, and all manner of coastal geographic and biological issues, as well as periodic temporary special exhibits.


Guided Tours

There are also a number of aquarium exhibits featuring several different species of snakes, turtles, frogs, fish, mollusks and crustaceans. And, if you feel like getting out and experiencing nature, well naturally there are three walking trails that wind through the woodland, salt marsh and shoreline of the surrounding area. Guided walking tours are offered year round.

Lectures and workshops on natural history topics are offered year round as well, and there are several cool programs for children. Don’t forget to visit the museum gift shop and library while you’re there.
