The Mayflower arrived at what is now Provincetown, at the tip of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, on November 11, 1620. They assembled a small boat and actually set foot on land on November 13th. In the boat, they made three expeditions over the next few weeks exploring the coastline. Having selected a site for their settlement, they sailed the Mayflower across to an abandoned Native American settlement called Patuxet, now Plymouth. The Mayflower dropped anchor there on December 16th. That is where the legendary Plymouth Rock can be found. [Source: Of Plymouth Plantation by William Bradford, Chapter X.]
