Sponsored by Harwich Conservation Trust and Wellfleet Conservation Trust, join Mark McGrath for a cliff walk along the social paths of Griffin Island in Wellfleet to enjoy the sunset on the dunes. This location is the highest, public access beach cliff in the US where you can watch the sun set over the Atlantic Ocean. The walk is an easy 1-mile round trip with a gradual incline. We will watch the sun set at 6:15 and return the ½ mile to our cars at Duck Harbor parking lot. You will need a headlamp or flashlight for the return walk.

Bring a snack to enjoy while we watch the sun dip below the horizon.
