When we bought our kayaks 24+ years ago, it was one of the best purchases we ever made. I don’t think there is anything prettier than being out on the water, especially at Nauset Marsh. (Click on blog link for route photo.)
I loved this photograph of paddling one of the inlets in the salt marsh. It was fun to put our route in our GPS and see how far we paddled, which was almost 8 miles. Wow! Have you ever paddled Nauset Marsh?
It was a gorgeous day to paddle Nauset Marsh. It is ever-changing from day to day and from high tide to low tide. It was high enough that we were able to paddle on the salt marsh by Coast Guard Station without getting stuck in low tide. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
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?
These two kayakers looked so content paddling on the creek in the salt marsh. It was a beautiful day and they were taking their time to enjoy the scenery and “smell the roses.”
This summer has been the summer for kayaking on Nauset Marsh and other areas on Cape Cod. There are kayakers going out at all times of the day.
I took this photograph from Hemenway Landing, which is a popular launch for kayakers. There were quite a few in that group enjoying their paddle as well as the hot summer weather!
