Seals at Chatham

If your looking for some Seals on Cape Cod, the best place to go is Chatham. Some people have seen the Seals on the beaches of Chatham Light during low tide, but the best place is Chatham Pier.

Located about a half mile from Chatham Light is Chatham Pier. This is where fisherman come in to send their daily catch to various places on the Cape. You can even purchase some fish right off the boat. Talk about fresh!

If your looking for Seals, head to the second floor and look straight ahead. Just in front of you will be lots of Fishing boats and a sandy island called Tern Island Sanctuary. During Low Tide, you'll see lots of Seals hanging around this island. Look around the boats and you may see seals playing around.

Boston Resturants

Four key restaurants to try in Boston

Cheers
84 Beacon Street Boston, MA 02108-3421
This is the original Cheers restaurant that the NBC Cheers! TV show was based on. To get the best experience at this restaurant, ask the host that you want to be seated in the main bar area. Well worth the wait!

Regina Pizzeria
11 Thacher St Boston, Mass
Once of the Original Pizza places in the North End. On Friday and Saturday nights you'll see long lines of hungry Bostonians waiting to go inside.

Durgin Park
340 Faneuil Hall Market Place
This is one of the oldest restaurants in the City of Boston. You'll find a lot of classical New England dishes here.

Union Oyster House
41 Union Street, Boston MA
Great Raw Bar! Worth stopping in to check out the historic raw bar and try some wonderful New England seafood.

Bleacher Bar
82 Lansdowne St, Boston MA
If you're a Red Sox fan, this is a great way to see Fenway Park! You can dine on some great food while you have a centerfield player's view of Fenway park. The restaurant has great photo memories all the wall to remind you of the good old days.

Boston Places to See

There's lots of good places to checkout in Boston, Massachusetts, here are five little known places to check out:

Swan Boat on the Boston Garden
Take a nice relaxing ride on the Swan Boats in the Boston Garden. There really isn't much to see on your short tour, but it's a nice relaxing way to spend the afternoon. A fun thing to do is see if you can find the hidden swan boat symbol someplace around the swan boat pond. Hint: Try looking up.

Boston Stone
On Marshall Street near Fanuel Hall Marketplace is where you'll find the historic Boston Stone. This stone used to mark the center of Boston. There's nothing to do but take pitures with you and the Stone and walk on historic Marshall Street which is a cobblestone street.

Mysterious Grave in the Boston Commons
In the Boston Commons, near Tremont Street and Boylston Street, lies an old graveyard. William Billings is buried someplace in the graveyard. There is a sign just outside of the gate letting you know about the mysterious grave.

Museum of Science
The Boston Museum of Science is a great place to spend a day, but there are two exhibits you may not know about. On the third floor there is a library filled with all sort of science books, and a live bees nest. Yes, a live Bees nest! Just inside of the library is where you can see and hear the bees. Bonus: Ask the librarian about the Owl display. That's a secret display on the fourth floor. You can only get there if you are a Museum of Science worker. If you ask nicely someone may show you the display.

Boston Marathon Finish Line
Right in front of the Main Entrance of the Boston Public Library on Boylston street is the finish line of the Boston Marathon. You can see the Finish line almost any time of the year.

There's quite a few look-a-likes, use the reporting page to determine if it's the correct beetle. Also useful are some of the tree markings.
