We were so shocked to see someone in the water as we finished a nice walk down Coast Guard Beach. The day was spectacular: sunny, in the 30s, and no wind.
I looked at Phil and said, “Is that someone in the water?” “Yes!” Wow! And he kept paddling farther out and farther out. He was really far out and the waves were huge. But then he caught an awesome wave and had ” the ride of his life!” Unbelievable!
How cool for the middle of January on Coast Guard Beach?
It was a glorious day to take a walk on Coast Guard Beach, part of the National Seashore. After all of the frigid weather we’ve had and a forecast of snow tomorrow, we headed out for a walk on the beach. It was chilly enough to need a winter parka and mittens, but you really didn’t need a hat. Amazing for January!
Gorgeous, don’t you think?
Coast Guard Beach, part of the National Seashore, experienced some erosion to its dunes and beach during the last storm. When you walk down the path, there is a 1-2 foot drop-off at the end. The dunes right next to the trail look like they got hammered.
I took this photograph looking back up from the beach. You can see the Coast Guard Station in the background.
Nauset Marsh from Fort Hill in Eastham, part of the National Seashore, was so pretty at high tide. The salt marshes are almost all submerged under the high waters.
I love this bench which is so very popular in the summer and one of our favorites places for a picnic. It looks pretty cold and austere this time of year, especially with the new-fallen snow. But still pretty with Coast Guard Station way in the background.
