Nomans Land Island and its surrounding waters remain closed to the public — but for good reason.

In Provincia di Dukes al largo della costa del Comune di Chilmark c’è l’Isola di Nomans Land, luogo in cui a partire dagli anni 1940 l’Aviazione ha sempre utilizzato come poligono militare. Oggi l’Isola è preclusa al pubblico a causa della presenza di ordigni inesplosi, tra questi siluri e bombe d’aereo.
If you find anything that appears to be an explosive device, do not touch it, leave it where it is and call the police. We will contact the appropriate agencies to properly dispose of the item.
