I often have to live my days vicariously through guests. As an innkeeper and mom, I have little time to explore and enjoy all the Cape has to offer. Just the other day, a guest was raving about his experience at the Wellfleet Audubon Sanctuary. I listened wistfully and added it to my ever growing bucket list. But while my time is somewhat limited, the time of vacationers is endless and I thought I’d share this tip for anyone planning an upcoming itinerary.
The sanctuary is situated along Wellfleet Bay and features over 1,000 
acres of salty marsh, sandy beach, pine woodland, and freshwater pond. With five miles of trails and a wide array of wildlife including song and shore birds, the scenic sanctuary is a perfect way to spend a restful and peaceful afternoon. Don’t miss the hummingbird and butterfly gardens and take advantage of the knowledgeable volunteer staff who offer guided bird tours.
