Save the shore - A trip to the Wetlands Institute will teach about the shore, the point, its birds, and wildlife. Keep the shore for generations to come.

Windy out, the day we were there, but obviously a really good habitat area, level, mostly gravel trails. As you can see by the interior photos, they have some fine wood carving artists providing close up details on both residential and migrants to assist birders of all levels in identifying birds that can be seen in the local Wetlands. Lots of other good merchandise that helps support their efforts to conserve, maintain, improve and share this special habitat for all kinds of living things, including humans.
