Nauset Marsh Kayak Tour

Kayak

Guided kayak through Nauset Marsh from the Orleans launch -- egrets, osprey and the channels behind the barrier beach. One of the best paddles on Cape Cod.

Dock wisdom

Nauset Marsh kayak launches are at the Pleasant Bay boat ramp in Orleans -- book ahead in July and August, they fill daily.

Whale watches depart from Provincetown, 40 min north. Dolphin Fleet is the most respected naturalist operation on the Cape.

Chatham charters are the best bet for striped bass -- the Chatham rips are legendary and the fish run year-round.

The seashore shuttle gets you to the beach; for Nauset Marsh, the launch is a separate drive into Orleans.
