Where do we go? There are many ways you can chose to spend your day. Start by exploring the Inner Hyannis Harbor, tie up for Fish and Chips at Baxter's Boathouse then make your way out to Lewis Bay, drop anchor and take a swim off Egg Island, a sandbar that appears for 3 hours on each side of low tide. Venture out to Hyannis Port Harbor and get a peak at the Kennedy compound and maybe even find a Kennedy or two out on the water. There are several coves and inlets that make great swimming hole, drop anchor and enjoy the warm waters of Nantucket sound.
