My family and I love coming here. It's always been a positive experience with the employees and of course the butterflies!!
Such an amazing place! I went for the first time this summer with a friend and we were not disappointed. The price was affordable too for anyone with a family. I will definitely go back again!
Beautiful day at Butterflies of Cape Cod. 🥰
I Can’t wait to go back to see these beautiful butterflies again. Ann and her husband were great explaining about the butterflies. ♥️♥️♥️

A return visit and very worthwhile. Went in the afternoon and many of their butterflies were flying around. We spotted a Tiger Swallowtail caterpillar on a poplar leaf, new monarch caterpillars on milkweed, some egg laying. They were able to answer all our questions on the butterflies and all the host plants they have as well. A very enjoyable trip.
It's a nice little place to visit. The gentleman at the front desk was very pleasant. It was $6 for an adult ticket. It's not a very large place but it's very nicely kept. Lots of butterflies everywhere inside.It's a nice place to bring little children. The butterflies fly all around you!
I was impressed with the variety of butterflies flying around us, and even more impressed with my 4 yr old & 8 yr old granddaughters' knowledge of them. This was a great interactive experience for the whole family.
I had high expectations before I went and I planted this idea in my head that I would be walking through beautuful gardens filled with flowers and shrubs and the butterflies would be flying around and landing on me, this was not the case. Butterflies of Cape Cod is a very small quaint place. You walk into the gift shop and purchase your $6 ticket. Than you get a list of butterflies that they have for viewing. You than walk outside the gift shop back door and enter the backyard. Once you get outside in the backyard you follow a butterfly path and you'll see an enclosed butterfly sanctuary like structure. You go through the structures door and enter it. Inside there you'll see numerous educational postings with butterfly information on them, hanging flower pots above your head and a glass box containing pupas. The butterflies were out of reach as there's no walking through their area to go over to them. Some were hanging on to the flowers in the hanging pots above my head, some would fly over my head and in my face from the closed off section where they rest upon the screen, on top of flowers or where their fruit was placed. I spent approximately about 20 minutes taking pictures and talking to one of their employees. The employees are amazing, professional and helpful. They're very knowledgeable about butterflies and I learned things about them I never knew. Even though it's an extremely small butterfly place it's cute and quaint. I find this place great for adults and especially for children as they would learn some wonderful education about butterflies and how to respect and love all of YHWH’S (Creator/God) creatures.
