What makes Wellfleet great? For many people, it’s our amazing setting. Located on a narrow spit of land near the tip of Cape Cod, we’ve got Cape Cod Bay on one side, the Atlantic Ocean on the other, and in between, an intimate landscape of salt marshes, sandy beaches, freshwater ponds, upland heath, dunes, pine and oak woods. Over 60% of Wellfleet’s land is protected from development, through the Cape Cod National Seashore, Massachusetts Audubon Society’s Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary, Town of Wellfleet, and Wellfleet Conservation Trust.
There are so many different ways to discover this special place:
Kayak or sail in Wellfleet Harbor
Hike the 7 miles to the tip of Great Island’s Jeremy Point
Bike the Cape Cod Rail Trail beginning in South Wellfleet
Build a sand castle below the cliffs at Newcomb Hollow Beach
Go flyfishing on a charter boat and bring home your dinner
Try out the quarter-pipe and concrete “pool” at the professionally-designed skateboard park
Train your binoculars on a pair of diving gannets
Wander through the Pilgrim Spring Woodlands in the early morning
