This is my home training grounds, McCorrie Point Beach on the Sakonnet River. Take a right and paddle 6 miles and you will be in the Ocean but before you get there, the River gets wider and wider (3 miles) with tide, current, swells, refractory waves that make it a wonderful place to train. Today it is flat!
Take a left and paddle 3 miles up River and the water gets flatter until you reach the Sakonnet River Bridge where there is more current than any other place in Rhode Island. Remember Rhode Island is the Ocean State!!
