The town of Chatham is at the elbow of the Cape. Its geographic location made it a natural place for the development of the fishing industry centered at Stage Harbor. Fishing is still very much a part of the Chatham economy, although time and circumstance has dwindled its size. The beauty and charm of this town abounds and increasingly offers more accessibility. Its latest addition is a new accessible Visitor Center in South Chatham.

Orleans, the Queen of the Cape, is dotted with many fresh water ponds as well as having the very popular Nauset Beach, a long sandy stretch right on the Atlantic Ocean. It also boasts an accessible ramp on fresh water Crystal Lake.

The only town on the Cape with a name not of Indian or English heritage but of French origins, Orleans truly is the crossroads of the Lower Cape. Routes 6A, 28, and 6 merge, and this large, small town is home for many small businesses. For a more tranquil beach on the bay side, Orleans offers Skaket Beach. Fishing charters may be obtained at Rock Harbor on Cape Cod Bay.
