This seagull was just basking in the sun on Coast Guard Beach while all of the little Sanderlings were scurrying about searching for their next meal. He couldn’t be bothered…

What’s All That Noise At Coast Guard Beach On Cape Cod?

We were taking  a walk at Fort Hill a couple of days ago when we heard all this noise coming from across Nauset Marsh by Coast Guard Beach. It sure sounded like a huge herd of seals, but it’s so late in the season. Were there still that many seals around?

So yesterday we walked out to the spit on Coast Guard Beach and not only was there a herd of seals on one of the sandbars, but we were greeted along the way by many of these curious creatures. Have you seen the seals on Coast Guard Beach lately? They were everywhere!

This was one of the trails that we used to take coming back from Nauset Spit on the marsh side. (Click on blog link for other photo.)

You used to be able to do a loop around from the ocean to the marsh and then through the dune back to the ocean side.  We haven’t tried that recently, have you?

A New Mystery At Coast Guard Beach On Cape Cod.

You never know what Mother Nature has changed since the last time you were at Coast Guard Beach. I posted a blog about the new 4-6’  dunes a couple of weeks ago. Well, they are all gone. The beach is pretty flat now… for the time being. And all of the pipes and wooden poles that we saw then couldn’t be found.

As we were walking on the beach yesterday, we could see all these pieces of blacktop and they were all in a specific area. That got us thinking… was it part of the parking lot that washed away in the Blizzard of ‘78? Or could it be part of the road going from Coast Guard Station down to the old parking lot?

Anyone have any ideas? Have you walked the beach in the past few days?
