It was great to see this big class of entire families enjoying the knowledge of the National Seashore ranger on Coast Guard Beach. I’m sure they are learning about the beach and the salt marsh and erosion and the sharks and anything that is important on the National Seashore.
What a wonderful experience for all who were involved! It looked like a lot of fun!
It was a picture perfect, gorgeous day at Coast Guard Beach, part of the National Seashore. In fact, the weather the past few days has been spectacular!
This photo reminds me of the “last hurrah” before school starts for most next week. Sunny, warm and everyone just enjoying that last little bit of beach before school starts!
So pretty, don’t you think?
Yesterday was the perfect day to kayak Nauset Marsh…or any place… on Cape Cod. The weather was perfect… sunny and warm and hardly a ripple on the water.
We launched from Hemenway Landing on Nauset Marsh and were able to paddle out to Nauset Spit the “back way” by Coast Guard Station because it was high tide. At low tide, you cannot get through with all of the sandbars. The water is way too low, even for a kayak.
It was beautiful and we saw lots of different shore birds from Egrets and Great Blue Herons and Cormorants and Sanderlings and Yellowlegs and more. As we neared Nauset Spit we could see some heads bobbing in the water and then a quick splash and a dive under. Yes, the seals were swimming in Nauset Marsh near Nauset Spit. Hopefully the Great Whites won’t follow them in…
An awesome time to get lost in the beauty of Nauset Marsh and everything it has to offer!
When you think of Rock Harbor, you always think of the channel and the iconic markers leading out to the bay.
I stopped at Rock Harbor the other day just for a minute nand the view from Rock Harbor…the other way… was spectacular! You can see the “rock” in the distance with Wellfleet way beyond. The 2 beach chairs belonged to a couple who were most certainly enjoying the gorgeous day!
Pretty, don’t you think?
