Geocache Description:


Officially known as “Veterans of Mattapoisett Memorial Park,” Ned’s Point is a hub of recreational activity on the shores of Mattapoisett Harbor. Take in a panoramic view of the harbor, Buzzards Bay, Cape Cod, and the Elizabeth Islands as you picnic, fly a kite, or play ball with your kids. You can also swim, lounge, or launch a kayak at the small town beach here.

The most recognizable feature of this picturesque coastal park is Ned’s Point Lighthouse, a 39-foot stone lighthouse built in 1838. Today, it’s one of the smallest active lighthouses on Buzzards Bay.

The cache is a unique micro container that is suitable for the views you see in the harbor and is located near the lighthouse. Stealth mode is definetly required here!  Bring our own pen and please replace as found.

If you have time check out the opening scheduale of the lighthouse at Friends of Ned's Point Lighthouse

Snap your favorite picture and post it in your log! You may even catch a cool 'SAILBOAT' coming into Mattapoisett harbor.
