Woods Hole

I spent the morning in Woods Hole, a famous and unique little village in a corner of Cape Cod. It is home to a Coast Guard Station, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, The Marine Biological Lab, NOAA and the main ferries to Martha’s Vineyard. Of course the research is world famous. The explorers and vessels used to find the Titanic were based here, although much more important but far lesser known things have been researched and discovered in Woods Hole. Here are some snapshots from a rainy Wednesday, including someone’s sunken fishing boat (a crane arrived soon after to begin to try to raise it); some research vessels (Delaware II and Oceanus); the ferry arriving from Martha’s Vineyard; and Nobska Point Lighthouse.
