The Staycation Guide, Part I

The Staycation Guide, Part I

With the long weekend approaching we know some people will be traveling and those of us staying in the city will be looking for something fun to do! We have compiled a list of fun activities for you to fill your weekend with!

Whether you’re somebody who enjoys a dinner cruise to view the stars or you prefer finding a unique campground to sit by a fire with good friends, this weeks guide has you covered!

Saturday, August 26th: Sea The Stars Cruise

The abundance of bright lights and tall buildings has made star gazing for city dwellers difficult at best and often pretty much impossible. But fear not, urban amateur astronomers and celestial connoisseurs, Boston Harbor City Cruises and the Museum of Science have teamed up to bring you the Sea the Stars Cruise.

Onboard a high-speed catamaran, the Sea the Stars Cruise brings you away from the city lights, for a tour of the night sky expertly guided by a Museum of Science Astronomy Educator. See, and learn about, the stars, planets, constellations, and more during a stargazing experience like no other.

Staycation at AutoCamp Cape Cod

AutoCamp Cape Cod is where boutique hotel meets nature retreat in Falmouth, MA. Located in the heart of Upper Cape, this property has ocean views and is nestled near the Sippewissett Marsh and the Shining Sea bike path. Celebrate the end of summer with a staycation in one of our modern Airstream Suites with a private fire pit and more. Weekends at AutoCamp include complimentary bike rentals, yoga and stargazing classes, and live music under the stars. Make a weekend of it - and use this link below for 20% off your stay!
