Point Judith Pond is a shallow, four-mile (6 km)-long salt body of water lying behind the barrier beaches and sand dunes that form Point Judith Harbor, which lies immediately west of Point Judith in Narragansett, the southwestern tip of Narragansett Bay. Depending on the tide we will explore upstream or just head out towards the ocean. Meet @ Marina Park, 134 Salt Pond Road, South Kingstown. There is a boat launch.
