Description
We are taking a trip with two Lynxes into Boston Harbor, planning to land on Snake Island for lunch before sailing back in the afternoon. On the small island, we can walk around and explore its beaches, woods, and central lagoon. We'll land on the beach (there is no dock) so be prepared for getting your feet wet. We will be leaving from the boathouse at 08:30, and will be back around 17:00 (depending on wind!). Note that there is no infrastructure at all on this island, unlike Spectacle Island. Bring a lunch, water, sunscreen, and clothes to keep you warm and dry. There may be spray, and there is also a chance of rain forecast currently. We will confirm entries by noon on Friday.
