Falmouth was founded in 1694 and named after its sister town in England. Bartholomew Gosnold, the man who named Cape Cod, landed upon these shores. Before Falmouth was incorporated it was known as the town of Succonessett which means "place where the black clam is found." Falmouth has the most shore and coastline of all the Cape towns. Martha's Vineyard is only 5 miles away from Falmouth and in great view from shore.
