Join us for this two hour "nature hike on the water" into the Masonboro Island Nature Reserve. Enjoy a beautiful paddle into the reserve and a visit to an island with a guide who's there to keep you safe, teach you the proper way to kayak, and show you all of the great plants and animals in our local salt marshes. Everything is included! Supplies needed: closed toe shoes that can get wet, sunscreen, and water.This paddle will be about a mile and a half. There will not be access to bathrooms on Masonboro Island Nature Reserve. The program fee includes the use of a kayak, paddle, and personal flotation device (PFD), which must be worn at all times on the water. Email recreation@townofleland.com with questions.
Participants under 13 will need to be accompanied by a guardian and will be placed in tandem boats with their guardian.
Restrooms: it is unlikely that any restrooms will be available before, during, or after any of our trips.
Shoes: please wear shoes for the duration of this trip. Water shoes or sandals that will not slide or pull off in mud, muck, or sand under water. No flip flops please.
Water/snacks: Please bring plenty of water and your own snacks as you wish. Drinking water will not be provided. Some but not all trips will include breaks for snacks. For those that do not include stops (Eagles Island), you may still wish to have a snack in the boat with you. Please be prepared to pack all of your trash out with you.
Sunscreen/Bug spray: Please bring/use your own sunscreen and bug spray. Most of the trips we will go on are buggy and kayaking is a great way to get sunburned legs and forearms!
