Ninigret Pond is Rhode Islands largest coastal pond and although parts of the shore are moderately developed it offers a great paddling experience. You can expect to see a variety of different waterfowl and marsh birds, a dune barrier beach and lots of different flora, including some rare plants. Some of the vegetation that you may see include bayberry, beach plum, shadbush, dogwood, seaside goldenrod and cedar. Be apprised that although this is rated as easy there can sometimes be strong winds and tidal currents that will make this paddle a bit more difficult.
