Eastham stretches between Cape Cod Bay and the Atlantic-facing shore of Massachusetts’s Outer Cape, a narrow coastal position that has made dunes, marshes and seafaring part of its character. A significant part of the town lies within Cape Cod National Seashore, established in 1961, and the Salt Pond Visitor Center introduces this protected shoreline. The Atlantic side includes Coast Guard Beach and Nauset Marsh, while Nauset Light remains a defining maritime landmark near the bluffs. On the bay side, First Encounter Beach recalls the 1620 meeting between Mayflower passengers and the Nauset people.
