First Encounter Beach Dunes On Cape Cod.

1,779 views

The dunes at First Encounter look like they’ve accumulated quite a bit of sand over the winter. I don’t remember them being this steep. It must have blown in with some of the storms. You can hardly see the fence post sticking out of the sand.

Do they look a little steeper to you too?

We were driving to Provincetown yesterday morning and noticed that there was a pretty heavy coating of snow from Eastham to Provincetown. It was really pretty.

Then when we passed East Harbor the snow-covered dunes looked just like the snow-capped  Colorado Rockies! Wow! Pretty cool, don’t you think?

Last Saturday was a gorgeous day for a bike ride as temps were in the lower 70s here on the Cape. It was just spectacular! (Click on blog link for other photo.)

I loved this photograph of the dune at First Encounter Beach. And then I zoomed out… now I can’t decide which one I like better.

What do you think? Which one do you  like better?

If you want to see “Cape Cod dunes,” White Crest Beach is the place to go. The dunes are huge and just magnificent. You can see that steep path down to the water.  And look at those views!

Not too many people this time of the year… so peaceful.

Windblown Sand Dunes At First Encounter Beach on Cape Cod… Two Perspectives!

I  loved this simple photograph of the windblown dune at First Encounter Beach in Eastham, Most of the footprints have been blown away. I took several photos of this dune. (Click on blog link to see other photo.)

I couldn’t decide if I liked the 1st one or the 2nd one better. The 2nd one tells a much different story as you can see the windblown tree  and bushes with branches only on one side and the dramatic clouds in the sky.

Which one do you like better?

 

Cape Cod Bay Sunset From The Dunes In Eastham

There are many beaches on Bay Cod Bay, as well as the Atlantic Ocean, in Eastham on Cape Cod. As you go from Orleans, to Eastham  out to Wellfleet, the dunes get steeper and steeper.

I took this photograph at low tide on the beach in Eastham but closer to Wellfleet. It was amazing how tall the sand dunes were, compared to the other beaches in Eastham.

So pretty with the sun starting to go down, don’t you think?
