Fennick Island

Sea thrift on the bluffs, pebble beaches, open water.

Fennick faces east, towards the mountains, and its bluffs are covered in wildflowers from May to July. Many homes here are second homes that the owners let in summer.

The bluffs are beautiful and they move. Before buying near the edge, read the geotechnical report and ask how far the bank has retreated in the last twenty years.

Beach access is public at four points, so a home a street back from the water often costs half as much and loses little.
