We Bet You Didn’t Know That Massachusetts Was Home To The Largest Tidal Flats In North America
Natural wonders abound in the Bay State. From places like Chesterfield Gorge to Mount Greylock, the Cape Cod National Seashore, and more, there are some jaw-dropping places just about everywhere you look. The Brewster Tidal Flats in Massachusetts is a natural wonder you may have heard of before and absolutely one natural wonder you have to see for yourself to believe.
The Brewster Tidal Flats extend nearly 10 miles along Cape Cod Bay from Brewster through North Eastham. You can see the flats at low tide when the water recedes over one mile into the bay.
During low tide across the flats, you can see sandbars, clam beds, oyster farms, and tidal pools that are overflowing with life. It's an extraordinary time to be here.
This great expanse provides a wonderful place to hike, look for seashells, find sealife, and just marvel at such a magnificent natural phenomenon. People also come here to go oystering.
It's amazing to have the largest mudflats on the entire North American continent right here in Massachusetts. It's one of the most unique natural wonders to see and experience.
