Lord Cove is located in Lyme/Old Lyme. It is a 5-mile maze of waterways in brackish, tidal marshlands that offer migrating birds, ducks, egrets, laughing gulls and osprey diving for fish. It is a leisurely paddle and should take about 3 hours or so. A map of the area will be provided to each attendee. Bug spray recommended.

The put-in, a small beach on Pilgrim Landing Road, off Route 156 (Neck Road) about a half mile north of exit 70 on Interstate 95. An address of 98 Pilgrim Landing Rd, Old Lyme, Connecticut, in your GPS will get you close. Parking is limited. Try to carpool.

Required equipment: PFD, 10-foot length of rope, whistle, headlamp/flashlight (for evening paddles). And be prepared to give your emergency contact number to the host if he or she asks for it.
