Serenity at Sunset
Join us on for a peaceful Sunset Paddle as expert Naturalists take you on a casual interpretative paddle around the Sedge Island Marine Conservation Zone. Enjoy the calm clear waters and listen to the majestic sounds of the natural world as you make your way through the Spizzle Creek channels. End your journey watching the sunset over the Barnegat Bay like you’ve never seen it before. You wont believe you’re in New Jersey!
“Through Interpretation, understanding; Through understanding, appreciation; Through appreciation, protection.”
