Adams Point

Sorry for the late blog post everyone, but I’m sure you’re all dying to hear where Kylie and I went to the weekend of the 21st.

Kylie and I decided to go to Adams Point in Durham, NH. This is one of my favorite places to go and free my mind whenever I am up at UNH. Unfortunately though, I forgot to bring my phone with me to take pictures because I was more focused on filming the location. I was filming Adams Point for another class that I am currently taking.

Only if I knew how to upload some shots that I took. I am telling you, this place is absolutely gorgeous. Adams Point is an estuary and part of the Great Bay. It’s a wonderful place to walk around and when the time is right there are ton of black raspberries to feast on. I won’t lie; I go every year to pig out.

Kylie gets so excited when we go here for multiple reasons:
1    1) She always gets to run around without her leash
2    2) She always gets to go swimming in the water, and
3    3) She loves chasing the abundance of squirrels

There is this one place where we always go to sit and observe. It’s a clearing in the woods that is atop a cliff, which you overlook the bay. Straight ahead there is an island with a small cottage that is accessible only by boat. For four years I have always wanted to get out there. This cliff is the most perfect location to watch the sunset, while listening to the waves crash against the shore line.

While we were chilling atop this cliff, a family came by and was looking for these devices. Geobox, I believe it was called. The cute thing about this situation was that Kylie was helping them to locate this device. We spent a good 45 minutes helping this family, but sadly, we came up empty handed. The kids just loved the fact that Kylie was attempting to help discover the Geobox.

The caretakers of the land have recently built benches along the trail that sits besides the shore, as well as steps to make it easier to get closer to that water. The views are just breath taking. Boats anchored off in the distance gives the area a distinguished look. It’s quite calming if you ask me.


I will forever love this place. The beauty of Adams Point will catch your eye, forcing you to go back to enjoy everything that it provides. I know I’ll be going there again next time I am at UNH.
