I have marked Lot C on the bay side, which is the best combination of parking and access to the water. This spot is very popular with windsurfers. You could also use Spermacetti Cove to the north. On a very fine day, you could even try the ocean side.

There is a fee to enter the park in the summer season, it is free after Labor Day. Before Memorial Day might be chilly.

I sprang for a WordPress plugin that lets me place live maps or satellite imagery in the website. There are three choices:

  • OpenMaps – excellent free street maps
  • GoogleMaps – not quite as good street maps from Google that may not be free
  • GoogleEarth – satellite imagery from Google that may not be free

I say may not be free because Google’s terms are complicated and depend on the amount of traffic you get. I’m guessing it will be free, but I can’t be sure yet. So far Google has not cost me anything.
