Description
"Chappaquiddick Islands eastern edge is a barrier beach formed thousands of years ago by offshore currents that deposited tons of sand. Today this beach extends for seven miles from Wasque Point on the south past the Cape Poge Lighthouse to Cape Poge Gut. At the reservation's northern edge, between Cape Poge Lighthouse and the Gut, Cape Poge Elbow sustains a gull rookery and nests of endangered piping plovers, least terns, and oyster catchers." ~"The Trustees of Reservations preserve, for public use and enjoyment, properties of exceptional scenic, historic, and ecological value in Massachusetts."
