I've seen pictures of what look like nice boulders in this place and the property description contains those ever-alluring words "dotted with glacial eratics". It's a TOTR property.

I've never been there but I've been to nearby Wompatuck before and don't remember boulders.

Anyone know anything about it?

Might be of interest to Southshore climbers.

I spent some time there many years ago. Not much, but if you are in the area, it's OK.
Sometimes a bit cooler than other spots

I also vaguely remember a short section of rock on the ocean as well.

Ah jeez. Yes, probably should have checked if this place was already on MP.

Worlds End. I've walked around. There is a lot of coast line rock.. nothing big enough to climb.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
