At a glance
Overview
Gull Pond is Wellfleet's biggest kettle pond, and its landing beach off Gull Pond Road is one of the Outer Cape's classic swim stops. Sandy entry, clear kettle water, and a shallow channel at the far north end that connects to Higgins Pond. The Wellfleet beach sticker is required in summer; the landing lot fills by mid-morning on warm weekends. Kayaks and SUPs put in at the boat ramp. No lifeguards on the pond landing.
