Spot Details
http://newind.org/viewtopic.php?t=157
There is access to a rocky beach through a small town park at the back of the Dock & Dine Restaurant. Beware of rapid tidal flow, heavy boat traffic, and confused low chop. Falling tide makes for a tough trip home or a quick trip to Long Island.
Lots of
large boats follow a channel that squeezes close to the launch, but shallow water on the far side of the river offers clear sailing if you can get there. Definitely not a beginner spot, but one of the few good locations in the general area for Northeast through Nortwest winds.
