About the event
Join us for a stunning paddle through the salt and brackish marshes of the Great Island Wildlife Area, also known as the Roger Tory Peterson Natural Area Preserve, a vital estuarine habitat at the mouth of the Connecticut River.
We'll begin our journey just before the golden hour, when the low sun casts a warm glow over the expansive tidal wetlands. As we weave through tidal rivers, we'll stop to explore a secluded sandbar island, perfect for stretching our legs and soaking in the serene landscape. As the sun sets behind the horizon, we'll paddle back under the rising light of a nearly full moon, a peaceful and unforgettable way to end the evening.
