RI: Charlestown- Ninigret Pond (kayaking)

Researching places to yak in Rhode Island I was intrigued by Ninigret pond as it was said to have very clear waters and was also located in an inlet of the ocean beyond.

Additionally I found a launch within the Ninigret Wildlife Preserve in Ninigret Park. This offered much more than just a kayaking experience if you wished. I saw several boats oyster fishing.

Per wiki, the Ninigret National Wildlife Refuge is a National Wildlife Refuge situated along the shore of Ninigret Pond. It is characterized by salt marshes, kettle ponds, freshwater wetlands, maritime shrub lands, and forests, and it is seasonally inhabited by over 250 species of birds

Beyond the initial launch area, motor boats are permitted and it is a tidal area and can get windy so use caution as you explore.
