Parks Matter on Cape Cod

Cape Cod, Massachusetts and its miles of white sand beaches, and Thoreau walked it all. Learn about the Cape Cod National Seashore with a guided, interpretive two hour beach walk. We will explore music from Bach to birds. Listen to the cadence of ocean waves, and awaken our senses to the sounds of a salt marsh community tucked neatly behind the protection of a barrier beach and the Atlantic Ocean. Along with the wonderful birding - watching and listening - learn about the Cape's historic past, the Native American influences and the ecosystem that supports this wonderful estuary.
