| Description: | Wellfleet Harbor is on the western side of the hook of Cape Cod, near its southern end. Wellfleet is a town at the head of the harbor. Mayo Beach is also at the head of the harbor. The sandspit extending eastward from Shirttail Point is protected by stone revetment and is paved for a parking area for the town wharf and marina. The basin north of the spit has been developed into a large marina with floats and berths for small craft and yachts.
Sesuit Harbor, 5 miles eastward of Barnstable Harbor, has two jetties. The west jetty is marked by a light, and the east jetty by a daybeacon. A lighted bell buoy, about 1 mile north-northwestward of the entrance, marks the approach. In July 2005, the controlling depth was 6 feet in the east half of the channel with shoaling to bare in the west half above Buoy 4; thence in September 2001, 5 feet in the basin except for shoaling along the east edge. The channel between the jetties and the harbor are subject to frequent shoaling, and local knowledge should be obtained before entering.
