Wetland Wonders

Cape Cod’s landscape is defined by its intricate network of salt marshes, freshwater swamps, and historic cranberry bogs. This collection features the Great Marshes of Barnstable, one of the most significant salt marsh systems in New England, and the ecologically diverse Great Sippewisset Marsh. Visitors can explore tidal creeks like Scorton Creek, observe active and retired cranberry bogs, and traverse wooded swamps such as Spruce Swamp. These sites serve as critical habitats for migratory birds and local shellfish.
