Because of special features and material surrounding the Glacial lake, the water drained out exposing the sediment and deposits left by the glaciers from earlier times.
With the rising sea level and the protection from the battering ocean provided by Georges Bank gone, nature started to reshape the whole of Cape Cod -- especially the Atlantic facing National Seashore area. The relentless shaping of the Cape continues even today. But this is the place to come to escape. This is the place to come to experience nature.
The entrance to Nauset beach is located in East Orleans at the end of Beach Road, where there’s a large parking lot.
The lot is about 2 miles from Routes 6/6A. During the Summer months you’ll pay to use the lot. Protection is the name of the game at Nauset not just for the Dunes, but the Birds nesting in the Spring. Always pay close attention to Beach Erosion and Bird nesting protection signs anywhere during your stay here. Heeding the signs means the area could still be here next time you visit.
