Sachuest Point Ntl Wildlife Refuge

Nature hikes & birdwatching

Sachuest Point National Park overlook

Sachuest Point combines easy walking, stunning ocean views, and rich diversity of wildlife in one accessible place.

Platforms facilitate bird observation over the grassy expanses and a walk offers opportunities to catch sea ducks, snowy owls, plovers, warblers, and tree swallows.

An informative visitor center serves as a launch point for three miles of accessible trails, including the 1.4 mile Flint Point Loop and the scenic 1.5 mile Ocean View Loop.

Nearby Sachuest Beach (Second Beach) and Third Beach provide opportunities to sunbathe, swim, or collect shells in summer.
