Sand Dunes

Harkness Memorial State Park

Waterford, CT

I haven't visited a lot of beaches in Connecticut, and having lived here for close to nine years now, I would say that Connecticut is not known for it's beaches.  Most of the coast line along Long Island sound is pretty rocky, but there are some stretches of sandy beaches, like here at Harkness Memorial Park.  Still, these sand dunes are a far cry from the dune and beaches along the Jersey shore that I remember as a youth.
