December 7, 2018 – December 9, 2018
In December, Cape Cod is a fabulous place to visit and explore as tourists are few and the region takes on a more relaxed feel. Unfortunately, at this time of year Kemps Ridley, Green, and Loggerhead sea turtles are often stunned by the cold water and end up stranded along the beaches. Participants learn about these fragile marine reptiles as Massachusetts Audubon's Wellfleet Sanctuary. We'll scour the beaches of Cape Cod Bay for turrtles, take part in numerous nature-related activities, and be magically absorbed into the wildness of grass-topped dunes, empty beaches, and ceaseless crashing waves. Expect the rare and unusual. Leader: Jim Sherwonit.
Call 860-767-0660 or email mbell@ctaudubon.org to inquire/sign-up.
