The Cape Cod Coast
September 9-11, 2025
$1900 per person
Join us for “local’s summer” on Cape Cod for crashing waves, lighthouses & more
Visit the best of the Cape, without the crowds! The Cape Cod Bay offers unique opportunities for both abstract and traditional landscape photography, for which we will practice both. We’ll visit the tidal flats at sunset and low tide, revealing the most beautiful patterns, colors and layers. We’ll visit the Atlantic side as well, capturing crashing waves, and any sea life that we may encounter. To top it off, ride over the dunes of the Provincelands in our Jeep to Race Point Lighthouse, only accessed by 4x4 or a long hike in the sand. This tour is for the photographer looking for short, classic New England getaway.
