Morris Island Loop Trail In Chatham On Cape Cod.
We hiked the Morris Island Loop Trail for the first time in years… since South Beach washed away and Morris Island became exposed to the ocean. (Click on blog link for other photos.)
The hike now starts down the road where you take a “right of way” to the beginning of the trail. You can only hike the trail when it is not high tide as the beach is totally covered at high tide and you can’t get by.
While still a pretty hike, it does not have the same ambiance as walking down those high wooden stairs looking out toward Monomoy Island and onto the beach. Mother Nature definitely does what she wants to…
High Tide At Morris Island In Chatham On Cape Cod.
Morris Island in Chatham is always a great place to take a walk, unless it is high tide. There are always so many birds to see and other wildlife. The trails through the woods and by the harbor also offer beautiful views.
However, if it is high tide, you can’t even make it down the beach! You can see the water all the way up to the rocks as you look out toward Monomoy Island. Have you ever hiked Morris Island?
