Right whales put on a show…

Provincetown, Massachusetts got its start because of fish–lots and lots of fish–and the fishing industry. Nowadays it is a tourist mecca for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender folk, and the fish are becoming protected and still there in huge quantities. For example, last summer I was walking on race point beach–which is a pristine beach with practically no seaweed that just goes on forever and ever–and I saw a five foot long seal jump out of the water thirty feet from shore. Just this last week, Ewa from iamprovincetown.com, was telling me that, after work, everyone in town headed down to Herring Cove Beach to watch whales… the water was completely placid, and maybe a quarter mile to half a mile from shore, you could see all these whales congregating and breathing through their blow holes. It’s just all part of the magic that is Provincetown… a world on the edge of America and the edge of extraordinary nature and stunning, natural beauty. There is no place like it.

If you come to Single Women’s Weekend, Women of Color Weekend, or Girl Splash (an all new Provincetown women’s week held in July), be sure to go on a whale watch or park yourself on Race Point beach to see the seals and maybe a whale or two!
