Without fail, ever time we visit Warren Island, it rains. In this case we decided to stop in Warren on our way from Belfast back to Rockland and it rained most of the way. The rain finally let up and we hung our gear out to dry, but opted to wait until the next morning to go ashore.
We have the boat cabin to duck into when the rain comes in earnest, but the summer campers on the island are never so lucky. As we walked the perimeter of the island we came across campsite after campsite full of wet gear hanging out to dry in the sun.
The other thing that never changes on Warren Island are the hordes of mosquitoes, so long shirts,long pants and bug repellent are a must. The center of the island is covered in wild raspberry bushes, and I’m convinced no one ever stops to pick them because the bugs are so bad.
