The Beach at the Narrow River - July 19, 2023

Our view of the waves

I was back on the Narrow River this afternoon to paddle with Michelle down to the beach at the Narrows at Cormorant Point.

We put in at the Sprague Bridge on Boston Neck Road at the John H Chafee National Wildlife Refuge. Established in 1973, the refuge includes over 300-acres of saltmarsh around Pettaquamscutt Cove that provides habitat for shore birds like egrets, herons, cormorants and osprey.

Cormorant Point

We headed the other way through the Narrows down to the beach. As always, the shore was lined with motor and paddle boats, but there were very few people on the beach itself. We sat on the ocean side to enjoy the waves at Cormorant Point and down the beach to the Dunes Club and the Narragansett Town Beach.

The trip back was a little tricky with the out-going tide, but we managed just fine.

Ready to head back
