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. (Click 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!
Yesterday was one of those Top 10 days on Coast Guard Beach. It was low tide and the beach was huge. Look at those incredible clouds by Nauset Spit, looking back toward Nauset Marsh and Fort Hill. So pretty…
There is quite a large pond that has formed right near the end of Coast Guard Beach by Nauset Spit. You used to be able to walk the trail part-way back on the marsh side of the beach, but I’m not sure if that is possible now. Does anyone know if that trail is walkable?
We had a wonderful paddle in our kayaks around Nauset Marsh from Goose Hummock the other day. It was a gorgeous day, with blue skies and a nice breeze. A nice respite from the hot and humid weather that we have been having lately. (Click on blog link to see other photo.)
We saw several seals swimming in the waters near Nauset Spit, which we have seen for the past couple of years. It wasn’t until we started to paddle back via another route that we heard this very loud cacophony which sounded just like seals. As we got closer we could see a sandbar that had hundreds of seals lazing about. Wow! We were shocked… that there were so many seals there so far from the spit and not very far from Town Cove. When did that happen?
Has anyone else seen all of these seals on the marsh side of Nauset Spit?
