/ getting there
Getting there
- Nearest airport
- HYA · Small
Closest commercial airport is Cape Cod Gateway (HYA) in Hyannis, ~25 to 35 minutes west, a small facility. Chatham Municipal Airport sits ~7 minutes from the property for private and charter aviation. Most attendees route through Boston Logan International (BOS, ~88 miles / ~1 hour 45 minutes by car, international hub) or T.F. Green / Providence (PVD, ~1 hour 30 minutes by car, domestic hub). The Cape Cod bridges add Friday afternoon traffic risk. Limited Plymouth & Brockton bus service runs Boston to Hyannis.
