Experience our Brewster Flats and see our breathtaking sunsets. Come see what all of our guests and reviewers are raving about. We have a spectacular location at the Captain Freeman Inn which is just a short walk to Cape Cod Bay. Located entirely within the city limits of Narashino, Yatsu-higata, or Yatsu Tidal Flat (or Tideland) is worth a look. The tidal flats offer a spectacular site as the sun cascades beautiful colors across our Cape Cod bay. Many of our guests come to see our breathtaking sunsets. You can usually find our Brewster oysters at the Brewster Fish House and Mahoney’s in Orleans. In this case the clean, clear waters of the Bay provide a definitive “bite” to a shellfish connoisseur’s palate. What gives our Brewster oysters their tantalizingly unique taste? The distinct flavor of an oyster is a result of the water in which it grows. Brewster oyster farm on a cloudy dayīrewster is also home to many oyster farms which are raised on the tidal flats of Cape Cod Bay. If you hike out to the middle of the Bay you can see where the original wooden packet landing was built to allow packet ships to come into Breakwater landing where they ferried cargo and travelers to and from Boston. When the tide goes out this natural phenomenon creates a spectacular, naturally reoccurring recreational area for our guests. This unique area extends over 9 miles along the coastline from Brewster to North Eastham. The Brewster Flats measure approximately 12,000 acres at low tide and are the largest flats in North America. Low tide in Brewster- a wonderful way to explore our bay habitat and oyster farms. High tide in Brewster- perfect for swimming, paddle boarding and kayaking. It’s helpful to check our tide schedule when planning your day to know if you want to swim or walk the flats. Due to the nearly level condition of these flats, small fluctuations in tidal level may result in extensive changes in inundation patterns. We walk our Brewster beaches year round and tell our guests to make sure to experience our beaches at low and high tide- everyone is always astounded at the difference. This system occurs on flats influenced by tidal fluctuations in water level, primarily driven by winds rather than by diurnal or semidiurnal tidal fluctuations. We were amazed to see the horse rider and how perfect that she was walking past a boat and Harrison was running in the foreground. However, the monthly variations of surface processes are in an order of centimeters, and the subsurface processes induced by salt marsh are neglectable in the intertidal zone.Just looking at this picture from several years ago makes me smile:) We have so many breath taking photos of our renowned Brewster Flats and this was taken at Crosby Beach at low tide. It shows that monthly changes of soil surface and subsurface processes are comparable in an order of millimeters in supra-tidal zone.

soil surface processes, and subsurface processes involving soil compaction/expansion and growth/ decomposition of salt marsh roots were analyzed. By monthly and fortnight tide cycle measurements of soil surface elevation and sediment thickness on marker horizons, the deposition-erosion rate of tidal flats, i. Marker horizons were established around a benchmark in supra-tidal zone. A field investigation was carried out during September 2012 to April 2013 in supra-tidal zone and inter-tidal zone over the tidal flats in the central Jiangsu coast, where ten observation stations were built.
