Dating from 1791, the famed Judah Baker Windmill is one of South Yarmouth's most iconic treasures. It has a distinctive fan shape, with a squat body and a cone roof, and is open throughout summer. The Werner Schmidt Observatory, meanwhile, includes high-end equipment that gives you killer views of the night sky. Just a few minutes west is Whydah Pirate Museum, dedicated to the fascinating history of genuine pirate life. Indulge in some old-fashioned maritime fun at Captain Bangs Hallet House Museum, a 19th-century sea captain's residence.
If you love nightlife, you'll definitely want to book a South Yarmouth vacation rental and take advantage of the amazing opportunities here. But if you're traveling with the kids, say ahoy to Pirate's Cove for some good-time family fun and mini-golf. Just as enticing are the many boutiques that pepper downtown South YarmouthÑyou'll find everything from jewelry to candles to souvenirs. There are plenty of spas if you want to indulge in a little R&R, too. Don't miss dining at one of the many seafood establishments that overlook Nantucket Sound.
You're in a maritime region, so you may feel cool by the water, then inch inward and reach for your cardigan. As you pack for your South Yarmouth vacation rental, bear in mind the season. Snow and rain mingle with occasional sunshine during winter, while spring leans coolerÑyou may even encounter some snow in April! Highs in the thick of summer fall just shy of 80 degrees, but evening cools down enough that you may want to bring a light wrap or cardigan. Come fall, you're in for a pleasantly cool day and a brisk evening.
