Features

The Bridgwaye Inn was originally opened before the American Revolution. It has had a number of names, including Surprise Inn, Sea View House (1903), and Riverside Inn. The current owners, The Polcaris, have been operating it as a restaurant, inn, and marina since 1972. Please note that the restaurant (Bridgwaye) and the marina (Bridgewaye) have slightly different spellings.

The historic marker for White’s Ferry stands across the street from the restaurant, on the banks of the South River, at the western end of the Sea Street Bridge.

Trail Description

No trails, but you can walk along Ferry Street, or across the bridge, for some gorgeous views of the South River.

Habitats and Wildlife

The South River, like the North River, is a beautiful tidal estuary where wildlife abounds! Paddling or boating on this estuary allows you to go shellfishing, fishing or just exploring. Downstream there are salt marshes and numerous creeks, host to egrets and blue heron. You might even see a bald eagle!
