Jack Medeiros Memorial Recreation Area
Jack Medeiros Memorial Recreation Area, formerly known as the West Plymouth Recreation Facility, combines a busy sports complex -- soccer and baseball fields, a modern playground with a rubber surface -- with a network of at least a mile of well-tended, mostly flat forest trails. Look for the simple trailheads along the entrance road and around the edges of the playing fields; they lead through the woods toward a distant view of Grassy West Pond.
Points of Interest

- There is a small little walkway that overlooks the marsh not too far into the trails.
- The furthest point of the trail leads to a big open marsh area. Once you get here, you can get a great perspective of the coast line. It is easy to see Third Cliff, the Spit, and bits of Marshfield.
