Local Legends

Napatree Point

Westerly, RI

Napatree Point curves off Watch Hill, Rhode Island — a bare sand spit where a summer colony of forty homes stood until the 1938 hurricane swept it away, taking lives. The protected point carries the coast's most sorrowful telling, remembered with respect.
