North-Falmouth
is one of the villages of the town of Falmouth on the southwest end of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. The population is about 3,500. North Falmouth is home to several beaches but most of them are private, except for Old Silver Beach, which is located off Quaker Road. The town of Falmouth, however, has many fine public beaches as it has one of the longest coastlines in the state. The town has a semi-rural atmosphere and is less developed than other areas of Cape Cod. The town is comprised of eight distinct "villages:" Falmouth Center, East Falmouth, Hatchville, North Falmouth, Teaticket, Waquoit, West Falmouth and Woods Hole. Some of the outdoor activities in the area include swimming, sailing, kayaking, golf, whale watching and biking the famous Shining Sea Bikeway. In addition, there are scenic walking/hiking trails in the area and charter boats for deep-sea fishing. Falmouth has an active arts and culture scene with world class music, theater and galleries. Other attractions include day spas, boutiques and specialty stores and the hands-on, marine discovery centers in Woods Hole. Even with all of these amenities, Cape Cod still retains a lot of land that's been set aside for public conservation and natural habitat for wildlife. In addition, the town of Falmouth has several freshwater ponds and forest areas.

North Falmouth 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.
