Wellfleet on Cape Cod is known for its oysters. The Wellfleet oysters are grown out and harvested in and from the estuaries of Wellfleet Harbor, located in the Northeastern region of Cape Cod Bay, so they are locally grown!
Wellfleet will host their 16th Annual Oyster Fest on October 15th and 16th which brings in thousands of people for the weekend. It’s supposed to be great fun!
I loved this little oyster boat which is docked in Wellfleet Harbor. I wonder if you can get oysters right there? So cool looking, don’t you think?
The sunset on September 11th on Cape Cod Bay was spectacular! I had just sat to read my book when I looked out the window and saw some interesting colors in the sky.
I quickly jumped in the car and drove down to the beach on Cape Cod Bay and the sunset was breathtaking!
Rock Harbor Beach in Orleans on Cape Cod was packed the other day when the temperature was well in the 80s. Everyone was looking for a little respite from the heat by enjoying some time at the beach.
You can see why the boats can enter and exit Rock Harbor in Orleans on Cape Cod only before or after high tide. Otherwise, they could get stuck in Cape Cod Bay or in the harbor for many hours waiting for the tide to change.
You can see the “buoy trees” which mark the channel into the harbor sitting on top of the sand. It is dead low tide. No boats will be going in for quite a while.
And at low tide, you can walk out it seems for mile. Have you ever been to Cape Cod Bay at low tide?
