It always amazes me how tall the dunes are getting on Coast Guard Beach as Mother Nature does her work. You can see the snow fence high on the dune in the photo. This was the path to the beach just a few years ago. Look at it now. Wow!
Yesterday was one of those glorious winter days with temps in the high 40s and sunny, blue skies. Anticipating the arctic weather that is supposedly coming this weekend, we thought it would be a perfect morning for a walk on Coast Guard Beach. (Click on blog link for other photos.)
It was only about 8:30 when we got to the parking lot and we couldn’t understand why it was almost full. When we got to the beach it all made sense. There were surfers everywhere!
We had fun taking photos and videos of the surfers and paddle boarders enjoying the beautiful weather. Just a perfect day and they all had smiles on their faces!
People always ask me “How do you like the winters on Cape Cod?” And I always tell them that I love winter. You just put on an extra layer and a warmer hat and heavier mittens and you’re good to go in any weather. There are very few days all year long where I don’t get outside for a nice, long walk.
Just look at Coast Guard Beach… any day, any time … it’s always spectacular!
