   • Cape Cod Canal. Bourne’s focal point is a seven-mile waterway cutting across the base of Cape Cod between Buzzards Bay and Cape Cod Bay. At around seven miles long and 480 feet wide, the Cape Cod Canal was constructed between 1909 and 1914, making intracoastal navigation safer than ever.
   • Cape Cod Canal Railroad Bridge. Towards the west end of the canal you may find yourself awestruck by this vertical lift bridge, opened in 1935. The second-longest lift bridge in the United States, the Cape Cod Canal Railroad Bridge is still in service, rising to allow large vessels to pass through, while carrying the CAPEFlyer, Cape Cod Central Railroad and the Mass Coastal Railroad over the canal.
   • Museums at Aptucxet. On a 12-acre campus on the south bank of the Cape Cod Canal, the Bourne Historical Society runs this museum comprising an assortment of historical buildings and replicas.
   • Scusset Beach State Reservation. At the eastern entrance to the Cape Cod Canal is another wonderful place where you can appreciate the dramatic beauty of this waterway, but there’s also the oceanfront on Cape Cod Bay.
