Pasture Pond

Highlight • Lake

This freshwater pond is a peaceful place to stop and take in the views that has a very different feel than the nearby beaches. You can frequently see birds like Great Blue Herons and ducks as well as turtles and frogs among the lily pads.

This beloved brewery donates a significant percentage of its profits to community-driven causes. Can't beat an inclusive, safe space for everybody that also has great beer and food.

Time and the Town Mural, Provincetown

Highlight • Monument

The mural ‘Time and the Town’ by Esteban del Valle (2021) can be seen on the outside wall of the ‘Marine Specialties’ store on ‘Commercial Street’. The mural shows humanized foxes at a dinner party in a hut in the dunes.
It was created as one of the first three commissions of the ‘Provincetown Public Art Foundation’. The foundation was founded in 2020 with the goal of telling the story of Provincetown - past, present and future - through public art.
