1. Directions from MIT to
the Red Jacket Beach Resort
·
Get onto Interstate 93 southbound (hereinafter 93 S)
- best ways are the Longfellow Bridge to Storrow Drive or just
take Mass Ave. down into south Boston and there is an exit that
will put you on 93 S further down.
·
Take 93 S to U.S. Route 3 southbound (hereinafter 3
S) (Exit 7).
o
MISSED
THE EXIT? SEE SECTION 2.
·
Take 3 S to the Sagamore Bridge (see Map #1).
·
Cross the Sagamore Bridge: you are now on U.S. Route
6 eastbound (hereinafter 6 E).
·
Take Exit 8 off of 6 E, turn right at the off-ramp
onto Station Avenue (see Map #2).
o
MISSED
THE EXIT? SEE SECTION 3
·
Follow road for 2 miles until reaching the traffic
light at the intersection with Massachusetts Route 28
(hereinafter 28) (see Map #3).
·
Turn right onto 28 and follow for 2 miles.
·
Turn left onto Sea View Avenue and follow it all the
way to the end. Follow signs for the Red Jacket Beach Resort
(see Map #4).
·
Park. Unload. Check in. Have fun. Cocktail hour
starts at 5:00 PM on Friday.
2. Alternate Route south
from 93S
·
If you find yourself having overshot the exit for 3
S on 93 S, all is not lost. Continue to Massachusetts Route 24
southbound to Interstate 495 (hereinafter 495) and then take 495
southbound.
·
This will take you to the Bourne Bridge. Right
across the canal in Bourne is a rotary with a nice topiary of "Cape
Cod". Go three quarters of the way around this rotary and
take the sign that says 6 E. Follow the directions in section 1
from this point.
3. Gone too far on Route 6?
·
If you find yourself still on 6 E in, say, Dennis or
Harwich or worse yet, Orleans, you have gone too far.
·
Take the next available N/S road south to 28 and
head back on 28 N (west) until you get to the above-mentioned
Sea View Avenue. (For those unfamiliar with Cape geography,
Yarmouth is just east of Hyannis/Barnstable).

(from alternate locations)
Directions from Providence,
RI
·
Take 95N to 195S to 25 (which is the merger of Rtes.
195 and 495). This will take you to
the Bourne Bridge. Follow the directions from section 2 above.
Directions from WHOI
·
If you find yourself coming from WHOI, I know it's
painful, but it's time for the 28 S crawl. Yarmouth is probably
not far enough away to justify going up to Rte. 6 and then
coming back down.
Rte. 28 S goes roughly
east and Rte. 28 N goes roughly west for those unfamiliar with
the wacky Cape roads.
