We’ve had a lot of very windy days here on Cape Cod lately. I don’t remember ever seeing so many white caps on the bay side. I took this photograph from our car picnic. It was just gorgeous!

Paddle Boarder Enjoying The Beautiful Weather On Cape Cod Bay.
I’ve seen this female paddle boarder, who always takes her dog with her, paddling along the shore of Cape Cod Bay many times. Her dog sits quietly on the board, obviously enjoying the ride.
Last Saturday was a gorgeous day on Cape Cod with temperatures around 50 and bright, sunny skies. It was the perfect day for paddle boarding with your dog and a wet suit.
Beautiful background, don’t you think? I loved the turquoise blue colors of the water and the sky…
Love The Steps At Marconi Beach In Wellfleet On Cape Cod.
New Ponds On The Back Side Of Coast Guard Beach On Cape cod.
Coast Guard Beach extends into a little peninsula that leads to Nauset Spit, with the ocean on one side and Nauset Marsh on the other. Coast Guard Beach and Nauset Beach were once connected, but now they are not. Nauset Spit is a narrow body of water deep enough for the boats to go in and out of Nauset Marsh and Orleans Cove. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
You can walk to the end of Coast Guard Beach and turn around or you can proceed further and walk along the marsh side. There used to be a little trail that eventually would lead you back to the beach. Now there are several ponds that are there all the time. You can see they get higher at high tide. You can still find that trail, but it is not as easy.
Such a different view than in years past, don’t you think? There’s very little grass on the salt marsh side.
No Kite Surfing Today At First Encounter Beach On Cape Cod.
It was a gorgeous, windy day so we thought we’d go back to First Encounter Beach and watch the kite surfers while we ate our picnic lunch in the car. Wrong!
How funny! We had forgotten that the tide had changed just enough in those few days that it was dead low at lunchtime. So we sat and watched the people walking out on the flats… and then we took a walk too.
If you enlarge this photo, you can see the little specks of people walking way, way out there on the flats. Pretty cool!
