Guests are welcome to use the staircase and observation deck by the water, which offer fantastic views and a closer connection to the ocean. However, please note that these areas are to be used at your own discretion. The area has a strong current, and the tide rises quite high, and we recommend exercising caution as it is quite rocky. The property owner and the manager will not be held liable for any incidents or injuries that may occur while using these facilities. We encourage guests to exercise caution and enjoy these features responsibly.
If you want to launch your own kayak or boat, we recommend using the nearby boat launch at Tusket Islands Wharf, located at the end of Wharf Road on Morris Island. This public boat launch provides access to the Tusket River and surrounding waters, making it convenient for those looking to explore the area by boat or kayak.
