Coast Guard Beach On Cape Cod… Two Years Ago.

It’s hard to believe that this was the path to Coast Guard Beach just two years ago. The drop-off now is just incredible which is why the National Seashore made a new path to the beach down the road a bit.

Pretty dramatic, don’t you think?

Huge Tidal Pools On Coast Guard Beach On Cape Cod.

We were surprised to see the huge tidal pools on Coast Guard Beach the other day. We hadn’t taken a walk down the beach in a couple of weeks and it had changed so much. (Click on blog link for other photo.)

There were a couple of these pools along the beach, this being the largest and over a foot deep. It must be getting fed when the tide comes in.

Have you seen these tidal pool along Coast Guard Beach? I’ve never seen them there before, have you?

 

Surf’s Up On Coast Guard Beach On Cape Cod!

Saturday was a gorgeous day at Coast Guard Beach. The sun was out and the temps were somewhat warm, in the 50s. The waves were perfect for the surfers who braved the cold waters to have a bit of fun. (Click on blog link for other photos.)

I loved the 2nd photo; it is a classic!

And the last photo was the two of them surfing near each other. Great entertainment for the surfers and all of the onlookers.

Breaking News At Coast Guard Beach On Cape Cod!

They’re back! Those adorable little summer-resident Piping Plovers are back at Coast Guard Beach. It was such a treat to see 3 of them scurrying along the water’s edge looking for their food of small insects and invertebrates. (Click on blog link for other photos.)

The ironic part was that I had just looked up on the “Checklist of Birds on Cape Cod” on the drive over to Coast Guard Beach to see when they would arrive. It said “late March or April,” so I had my fingers crossed.

Adorable little guys, don’t you think? They should be here till the end of September, so you have lots of time to see them!
