The Housatonic River forms a wide natural boundary as it empties into the Long Island Sound, defining the coastal character of this shoreline landscape. Numerous islands and bars, such as Fowler Island, Nells Island, and the Oronoque Bar, detail the shifting river mouth and tidal flats. Inland, the Wepawaug River and Indian River snake through developed areas of Milford, leading toward protected coastal habitats like the Stewart B McKinney National Wildlife Refuge at Milford Point.
