Narrow River - Sprague Bridge - July 19, 2024

Pettaquamscutt Cove
I was back on the Narrow River this morning to paddle down to the beach at the Narrows at Cormorant Point

I 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.

I headed the other way down to the beach. I paddled out behind the rocks to check out the waves at Cormorant Point and down the beach past the Dunes Club and the Narragansett Town Beach.

On the way back, I took a dump taking a picture of an egret, but was able to do a self-rescue with a paddle float and pump. At least the picture came out OK.
