Cape Cod is....

It also covers up to Canada, and down the Atlantic Seaboard. The Gulf of Maine has become a hotspot of activity, too.

Very cool. My kids love sharks.

I have had the app for a couple of years. It’s amazing how covered the area is - from the Elizabeth Islands to Nova Scotia - by the end of September. Hundreds of pings and sightings.

Arsonist on the loose!


I think anyone who wants Cape Cod news can just look it up for themselves? I get it, you have no life, so you want to be the town cryer. Good for you?

You are not very good at trolling, OP - BUT I am surprised you have friends willing to help you out. LOL.

Bonus points if you can easily find a small two-bedroom house within a couple hundred feet from the water for less than $2500/week.

I hate driving to the Cape and would prefer to go somewhere closer. We just don't know of another place like this.


This is my question too. I have no particular attachment to going to the Cape specifically but where else can you get that, that’s any closer to DC?

I grew up in Hingham and have never see this before. It also is not near the cape and I have heard nothing of this and I am here on the Cape now.

Stop it! Do not try to destroy OP's narrative and mission by providing FACTS to openly contradict OP's slant - it will NOT be tolerated! OP's life is completely empty without OP coming here and trying to slam a place OP (so obviously) only knows via Google.

Seriously, just be glad that OP has never been to the Cape - OP's blatantly ignorant posts are proof positive, and OP keeps digging deeper, by claiming there is "one" poster who knows and likes Cape Cod.

OP is clearly not well, but continues to try to bully anyone who knows and likes Cape Cod. You truly can't argue with ignorance. Well, back to the beach.......

I'd fell bad for OP, if OP wasn't so immature and lonely, by their own doing.

Ask OP, OP is the self appointed Google expert!

LOL.

I am guessing OP hangs out in OBX - just a guess from OP's hostility.

Way too expensive. (10K for a small house in Chatham)
Beautiful.
Water too cold to swim in.
Snooty. My snootiest Aunt goes every year. Preppy heaven.
Too far from DC for me to visit regularly.

What do you think about Cape Cod?


Here now, hunkered down in my home, loving life. People are friendly and kind. I love it here.

BINGO - can't explain THAT to OP and OP's buddies on here because they are not having it = WHACKO. They act sane though........LOL.......

And if this isn’t enough, use a google map satellite view of the Cape and Nantucket and then scroll in to the closest view. The thousands of sprinkle like black specs you see are seals. Those tens of thousands of seals support hundreds to perhaps 1000 great whites.




Mostly in Chatham because (wait for it) that is where the sharks are, WHEN/IF there are sharks.


There were 8 great whites spotted yesterday spanning from Maguire Landing Beach down to Monomoy. Amazingly there was also one spotted off of the coast near Dennis! 1000 animals need space to hunt so they are going to spread out as the arrive.




Exactly - and if you had ever been to the Cape, you would know that Welfleet and Chatham are where the sharks are because of.......(wait for it) ...........SEALS.


Boy OP, such a troll fail. You really are an idiot. Keep talking.

LOL haven't seen this much hostility since the "mommy wars" broke out on DCUM. You might want to let this topic go, OP, really.

I am not OP. I don’t hate CC but I do like ACK much better - that is why I own a home there - and I am total shark nut. Been paying attention to both their re-emergence and the return of the seals for nearly 25 years. The sharks are NOT just at Wellfleet or Chatham or Nauset. They are everywhere in the CC and island area looking for food. The PP who keep trying to make my perspective an anti Cape thing and who is arguing that the shark population is limited to very specific areas is wrong in both counts. Furthermore, said poster is undermining their own case with respect to the sharks by ignoring the clear evidence
of their growing numbers.

Not sure who you are talking to but IF YOU REALLY knew the Cape you would know that there are even more seals in MONOMOY. Get off the computer and go familiarize yourself with the place you claim to know so well.

They concentrate in few areas, genius. Sharks are not OMNIPRESENT like you like wish to believe they are.

It’s so funny when someone posts something that can be readily confirmed or refuted in moments and also insults those who might not agree with their readily confirmable/disprovable notion. You are not very wise. In the last week, there have been 18 great white sharks spotted in areas ranging from the Elizabeth Islands, Monomoy, Chatham, Nauset, the Atlantic side near Ptown, Wellfleet, Dennis and Plymouth. That is almost the entire span of the Cape from west to east and south to north.

Perhaps you do not know what the word OMNIPRESENT means? If you are on Cape Cod you are surrounded by about 1000 great whites of varying sizes, sexes and ages. Those animals compete for food with one another and therefor do NOT all sit in the same places. The big girls have command of the best hunting grounds and territorial “claims” proceed down from there.

The thing is, people don’t really go to the cape to go in the water- we go for all of the other reasons.

The Cape can be great and have a lot of sharks. In fact, it is great and does have sharks all over.
