Many of the beautiful shore beaches that are otherwise expensive to access for a non-resident is available to non-residents off season.
What fun is that off-season? Wait, did you really think that? Let me show you. . .

Activities: Beach, Walk, Bike, Sunset, Picnic
Compo Beach is a 29 acre park with a beach along the shore of Long Island Sound and borders the Saugatuck River.
The beach is open year round. A daily fee is charged to park from May 1 through Sept. 30. from 4 a.m. to 10 p.m.
During that in-season period I recommend you include Compo Beach as part of a bike tour around Westport- there’s no restriction here to enter on foot, just to park. I do plan on posting recommended biking routes which leverage the East Coast Greenway.
Be Present Gift of the Day
However, from Oct. 1 through March 30 leashed dogs are permitted and non-residents can park for free!
The parking lot faces the sunset. Now that’s a gift to be present

This is a non-promotional blog. I am not a photographer nor am I selling anything through this blog. Professionally I am a Business Transformation Specialist focused on gaining efficiencies and reducing costs for major corporations. Recent life experiences made me better appreciate the present and all that can be seen by increasing my focus and attention on my surroundings. I always enjoyed going out and exercising and I would look but I did not see as my attention was on resolving some problem. Captured through pictures and sharing insights about various locations, I hope others can enjoy my research and insights and allow themselves to pause a few moments and truly appreciate and learn new things. When you follow me that is my only gift. To know I have touched you enough to want to follow the blog.
