Oyster Pond

Highlight • Lake

Oyster Pond is a scenic salt pond right off the Shining Sea Bike path.
It is comprised of a series of kettle ponds that flooded at the end of the last glacial period. Additionally, it is one of the most studied ponds for its size, in large part due to its proximity to several major science institutions at the world-famous Woods Hole.
