The past few times we’ve walk Coast Guard Beach, we’ve noticed a platform or walkway starting to emerge from the dunes. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
You can see how close it is to the old path to the beach which is next to the fence on the left.
Does anyone know what used to be there? Was it a walkway? I remember it used to be pretty flat there until just a few years ago when beach erosion really kicked in and the dunes started getting much taller.
Coast Guard Beach is looking pretty big lately. A lot of the sand has moved down toward Nauset Spit. It looks so pretty and so expansive! (Click on blog link for other photo.)
I took the first photo a couple of days ago and the 2nd photo about 3-4 weeks ago. In the first photo you can see Coast Guard Station and the bathhouse. I don’t remember ever being able to see both of those structures so well from that angle and so far away. It seems like the sand is so much higher on Coast Guard Beach, especially down toward the Spit.
This is also the first time in years that we were able to walk all the way to Nauset Spit at high tide. Have you noticed that too? Look how high those dunes are!
