Do You Love Kayaking Here At The Jersey Shore?

A Look at kayaking here at the Jersey Shore

This past weekend my Son ( Zach ) and his friends hit the waters in Little Egg Inlet and did some kayaking on the back bay area of 7 Bridges Road . They were not the only ones either, lots of kayak's were out. More and more people are enjoying kayaking through out the area ....

The rivers in this region are rich in history and folklore, as well as filled with the wonders of nature - wildlife, beautiful stands of Atlantic white cedar, and most of all, the serenity of the Pine Barrens. Water is clean (the "tea-color" is a result of tannic acid from the roots of cedars lining the river banks and does not affect the water quality.) and the air is clear. Wildlife such as otters, beavers, bog turtles, Pine Barren treefrogs, ospreys, and even occasional bald and golden eagles, might be glimpsed as the canoe moves silently through the waters - don't forget a waterproof camera! Vegetation is abundant and includes interesting plants such as sundews, pitcher plants, rare orchids and curly grass fern. But please don't disturb these precious plants! Many are endangered species.
The Mullica, Batsto, Oswego and Wading Rivers in Burlington County, and Cedar Creek in Ocean County are but a few favorite canoeing locations, and the Barnegat and Little Egg Harbor Bays are favorites for kayakers. ~ pineypower.com

There are kayak clinics and classes residents can take at various county parks, including Wells Mills County Park in Waretown.
