Mother Nature sure has been busy by Nauset Spit on Coast Guard Beach. As you walk down toward the spit, the beach looks absolutely humongous! There is so much sand. (Cluck on blog link for other photos.)
You can see there are little pools that lead into little rivers that get filled at high tide. It looks so different. At the very end by the spit, don’t try to walk around to the marsh side at high tide, as the water comes right up to the dunes.
Have you taken a walk on Coast Guard Beach lately? Always so beautiful and constantly changing!
There were quite a few seals swimming about at low tide on Coast Guard Beach. It’s always so much fun to see the seals and watch all of their playfulness in the water.
It’s Labor Day weekend and almost time for the lifeguards to go back to school. Pretty soon there will be empty lifeguard chairs and quiet beaches… it’s been a busy summer!
No matter what time of the day or what time of the year, Coast Guard Beach is always gorgeous and ever-changing. I took this photograph the other evening as the tide was just starting to go out.
Yesterday evening I took a drive to Coast Guard Beach and Nauset Light Beach, hoping for some cooler temperatures than at my house and maybe a good photo before the approaching storm this weekend. The waves were supposed to be big!
I wasn’t disappointed at all! While the waves were not very big, this iconic view of Coast Guard Beach and Coast Guard Station was spectacular! What do you think?
