Surrounded by the bent finger of Hull peninsula and the blue waters of Hingham Bay, this island offers hiking trails lined with sprawling trees and lush shrubs. Wild berries and flowers add color to your walk. The beautiful views of Hingham bay may make you want to stay a while. If you obtain a permit, you may camp here. Access is by private boat or by free water taxi from George's Island. Open from 9 am daily.
