About this map

Pawcatuck River forms a sharp geographical boundary between Connecticut and Rhode Island, dividing the industrial and residential centers of Pawcatuck and Westerly. This coastal survey highlights the intricate shoreline of Little Narragansett Bay and Block Island Sound, where the prominent Watch Hill Lighthouse stands at Watch Hill Pt. The landscape is a mix of dense urban development, indicated by the purple-tinted expansion around Westerly, and significant conservation or recreation areas like the Barn Island Hunting Area and Misquamicut State Beach.
