The purple line on the map is the Delaware & Raritan, or D&R, Canal. The canal is a basically 40-mile-long pond. The water flows very slowly from west to east; it is essentially still. Access points generally coincide with bridges or locks.

Turtles

Eastern Painted Turtle

You’ll find these medium-sized turtles in any body of water. You will often find them sunning themselves on any convenient perch, watching you. Get too close, and they drop into the water. Rarely, you may encounter a released pet that is tame.

Seals & Dolphins

Harbor Seal

Harbor seals are not uncommon in the winter, but kayaking is, so don’t expect to encounter them when you are out for a paddle.
