Sunset on the bay

This website is integrated with OpenLayers maps - you can zoom and scroll the imagery to get a better view. Click on a green dot to load a county map. I have also added a Message Board where you can create your own account and use to arrange meet-ups, etc.

The marker in the lower-center of the map is a super-easy put-in on Whale Creek, above. The other markers are a longer slog over the beach. All have convenient free parking (don't leave your vehicle in the launching area, that's a dick move!)

  1. Weequahic Lake - Newark ( 40.70570, -74.19775 )

These birds are all associated with marine environments, but the truth is, they don't care. You'll find them wherever there is food. Since no place in New Jersey is really very far from the ocean, you can find most of these almost anywhere.
