Hyannis is an exclusive resort community located on Cape Cod. It's one of the seven villages of Barnstable, which also includes Centerville, Osterville, Cotuit, Mastons Mills, West Barnstable and Barnstable Village. Hyannis is considered the "Homeport of Cape Cod," and boasts the area's largest concentration of businesses, shops, motels, hotels and restaurants. It lies along the Cape's southern coast and faces Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard Islands. At the Main Street Waterfront District, you will find attractions such as Hyannis Harbor, the Village Green, the JFK Museum and JFK Memorial Park. Cape Cod is known for its spectacular beaches (over 100 miles) and premier saltwater fishing - right off many of the public beaches and jetties. Freshwater fishing is also available in the many ponds and lakes of Cape Cod. There's an abundance of restaurants in the area, featuring local fare like clam chowder, Cape scallops and steaming lobsters served in casual dockside cafes or elegant old sea captains' homes. Hyannis also offers upscale shopping in fine boutiques and art galleries found in the historic Main Street Waterfront District, the Cape Cod Mall on Route 132, Cape Town Plaza, Southwind Plaza and the Festival of Hyannis. In addition, the villages of Centerville, Osterville, Cotuit, Marstons Mills and Barnstable Village present an array of local arts and crafts shops, antique shops, galleries and boutiques. For history buffs, be sure to visit the Donald G. Trayser Museum, which features buildings and artifacts of the Colonial era, and Captain Bangs Hallet House, a restored 19th century home. Other attractions in Hyannis include the Cape Cod Potato Chip Factory, the Cape Cod Railroad's Scenic Fun Train, Cape Cod Children's Museum, Sandwich Glass Museum and the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History.

Hyannis 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.
