Plymouth Beach consists of a motel, a restaurant and a small beachside community along Warren Cove.
Plymouth Beach is also an important breeding and nesting site for several threatened and endangered shorebirds, including the piping plover and the least, Arctic, common and roseate terns.
The birds' routes typically span up to 3,000 miles (4,858 km) of non-stop flight.
Plover and tern nesting areas are monitored and protected by Town staff.
One of the largest common tern colonies in Massachusetts is located at the point.
