For anyone not already aware, who was considering accessing the Stonington Town Dock, it’s currently completely fenced off for construction. No access. The adjacent Dog Park is still open through.

You can still go around the fencing on the left side to access the dock.
I've been there several times this week.
Parking is a bit of a nightmare though during the week.

There used to be an area a few score yards south of the fishing dock in
Stonington where access to the harbor for birding and sealing and running
tino skinks and other activities can be done. Parking may be available
there.

Does anyone know if the little honor fish hut run by the Bomster family at
the town dock is still in operation?
