[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Considering a Cape Cod vacation with 2 kids -- MS and HS.  Wondering if swimming is possible/comfortable or if it is too cold in mid-July.  Is it possible to swim in just bathing suit or is some kind of wetsuit top and/or bottom recommended?

Any recommended towns that are good?  Both kids prefer ocean side to bay side.

One family member is lobbying for staying in a high-end resort with a pool, meals, amenities, etc.  Is there anything like this on the Cape or is it mostly just rental houses?

Also thinking of flying to Boston, renting a car and driving to CC.  How is Boston - Ptown Ferry? [/quote]

There are a few resorts - Red Jacket (teens would enjoy), Cape Codder (younger kids would enjoy).You don't really need a "resort type" place, there is plenty to do on the Cape. Chatham is preppy - tourists seem to enjoy it.  Hyannis has Main Street. P'Town is mostly artsy. PP is correct that it really does depend where you are thinking of staying re: water temp and what the beach looks like (high tide vs. low tide, rocks vs. no rocks, private only vs. public access, etc.) Most areas have canoe/kayak/water sports, which the teens would probably enjoy.
