One of the larger ponds in Wellfleet, Gull Pond has a nice shady beach and warmer waters. A great spot if you are looking to explore some of the non-ocean waters. Parking is available with sticker.A sluiceway connects Gull Pond with Higgins Pond. This small, shallow passage way was built by by Native Americans hundreds of years ago to catch herring during their seasonal run. Note: Jack's Boat Rental is no longer running on site at Gull Pond.
We love this beach because it is quiet and peaceful.

This pond was best for swimming with a toddler. His parents raved about it. Lecount for the ocean (the dog especially loved that one), and Indian Neck and Mayo beach were also great - lots of options in Wellfleet.
