A wide variety of creatures lives in and around the park and may be seen at any time. I recommend early morning or late evening for viewing animals. During the day from dawn to dusk many types of birds may be seen. The animals that are around include black bear, white tailed deer, red squirrel, gray squirrel, rabbit, fox and others. Birds include herons, cranes, gulls, bluebirds, cardinals, jays, crows, ravens, duck, goose, woodpeckers, osprey, hawk and an occasional eagle.
It is a beautiful place. We visit often and each season presents new discoveries and joys.
We love going here to walk the trails! It's close by, but it always gives a more secluded feel, even when you encounter others.
The water is crowded with creatures including marsh snails, blue crab, fiddler crab, flounder, spot, croaker, minnow, frogs, turtles and others. There is a lot to be learned here as the area was originally 'opened' during the 1930's with a WPA Project that intended to drain the land in order to reduce the number of mosquitoes. The result, however, was quite different and left canals throughout the marsh which allowed encroachment of salt waters. The area has recovered quite nicely and now presents a wide variety of wildlife and plants to view and discover.
Beautiful & relaxing. Good facilities!
This trail is remarkable for several reasons. It traverses several types of North Carolina landscapes including salt marsh, swampland, pond, riverine, bottomland, pineland and includes what appears to be a rather large spring. I will leave it to you to explore each of these biomes and find the spring for yourself.
Also at this location are campgrounds which can be reserved. There is a sizeable boat launch for canoe, boat and kayak. Easy access is available then to local freshwater rivers and streams, large saltwater marshes, bays, the barrier islands and on to the ocean.
What a great place to go for a run. The trail is well kept and if you stick to the path it is about 1.5 miles. Be aware of the metal grating over the water, it is not meant for small dogs.
Mostly accessible trails, some small rocky parts. Note your way in, because trails aren't marked well for exit back. Bathrooms at trailhead. Wheelchair accessible except for those who can't travel well over small rock gravel (jostling around). Look for osprey, lizards, crabs.
