The Packet Boat Journal
The Packet Boat Journal shares observations from Wellfleet Harbor — tides, wildlife, weather, shifting sandbars, and the quiet details that shape each crossing.
Rather than travel tips, these entries focus on how the harbor changes day to day and season to season. Some are practical. Others are simply notes from time spent on the water.
Wellfleet Harbor is never fixed. Channels move, tides reshape the shoreline, and wildlife follows its own patterns. This journal exists to document those changes as they happen.
If you’re interested in how the harbor works — not just where it goes — this is a good place to start.
