Cataumet
is a small village, or "census designated place," located on the Upper Cape of Cape Cod in southern Massachusetts. It is one of ten villages located in the town of Bourne. The others are Bourne Village, Bournedale, Buzzards Bay, Cape Cod Air Station, Gray Gables, Monument Beach, Pocasset, Sagamore and Sagamore Beach. The two bridges that access Cape Cod, over the Cape Cod Canal, are located here. The Cape Cod Canal, which bisects the community of Bourne, is well known for its superb fishing. The Bourne Scenic Park campground is located beneath the Bourne Bridge and there are numerous harbors and inlets for sailing and boating in the area. The village of Catamet is quiet and calm, as are the other villages of Bourne, and without the heavy tourist traffic of other areas of Cape Cod. However, the population in this entire region nearly doubles in the summer months. Bourne is home to an annual Scallop Festival, usually held in September each year, and the Wampanoag Nation holds an annual Pow Wow in the town of Mashpee each July. Nearby Sandwich Village is known for its' Colonial era attractions such as Hoxie House (the oldest house on Cape Cod, built in 1675,) the Sandwich Glass Museum, Daniel Webster Inn, Dexter Grist Mill and the Heritage Museum and Gardens. Cataumet is approximately 57 miles southeast of the city of Boston.

Cataumet Weather & Climate
|
|
|
|
The Cape Cod region has a four season climate with maritime influences. The weather here is generally more moderate than inland Massachusetts. Extreme conditions such as blizzards and hurricanes are possible, but not typical. Due to the moderating affect of the ocean, temperatures in the Cape Cod region are usually a few degrees cooler in summer and a few degrees warmer in winter. Spring comes late and is chilly, but autumn is mild and remains warmer than places further inland. The Cape Cod region has the lowest precipitation of anyplace in New England. Tropical storms occur once every 5 or 6 years, with very high winds and heavy rain. On average, the area is hit by a hurricane once every 11 or 12 years.
