Join us for a 90-minute walk at Winthrop Beach in Winthrop. This beach is often an excellent place to find shorebirds as well as nesting terns. Winthrop Beach is often a great spot for Piping Plover, American Oystercatcher, and more.
Expect mostly hard-packed sand and rocky/gravely areas. Closed-toe shoes are recommended as there is often broken glass.
