Take a Ride on a Piece of Cape Cod History

Do you remember what it was like having the wind blow through your hair, the bright  lights and music as you ride high atop a colorful horse? I'm talking about a carousel ride of course!

Families have enjoyed Cape Cod family vacations for many years and their fondest  memories are of the carousel rides (which are quite popular on the Cape).

Factoid

Did you know carousel horses were once used to train cavalry soldiers?

The Cape relishes in the history of carousel rides. You can find them at the Cape Cod Carousel and Funhouse Arcade, Island Carousel at Cape Cod Mall and the Flying Horse Carousel in Oak Bluffs on Martha's Vineyard - just to name a few.

The Flying Horse was built in 1876 by Charles Dare and is the oldest carousel in the U.S. - it only costs $1.50 for a ride and kids and adults love it.

Ride For Free!

The hand carved carousel at Heritage Museum and Gardens is another historic carousel http://bestoncarousels.com/. It was crafted in 1912 by Charles Looff and rides are free with museum admission.

A Cape Cod family vacation is perfect for kids because there is so much to do. Countless families spend summers throughout the Cape and never run out of fun things to do.
