Here’s what Plymouth Rock looks like during a king tide
Sitting underneath its own Pantheon-like canopy, Plymouth Rock usually stays pretty dry. Except during a king tide.
Three days of king tides submerged much New England’s coastline—including the historic piece of granite—earlier this week.

Thanks to Monday’s supermoon, the king tides returned to the region, hitting high-water marks by midday on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday while causing mild coastal flooding up the New England coast.
