Description
There are few better ways to spend a Cape Cod evening than gliding across the surface of a sun-gilded kettle pond as the day winds down. This guided sunset kayak traverses a chain of three interconnected freshwater ponds in the heart of the Cape Cod National Seashore, with a Wellfleet Bay naturalist sharing the natural and human history tucked into this quiet corner of the Outer Cape.
Keep watch for wading birds, herring, and carnivorous bladderwort plants as you paddle at a relaxed, unhurried pace through the fading light.
