The Spit
The Spitwith natural wetland habitats. The 1. 8 mile trail is ideal for hiking and birding. A protected shorebird nesting area, The Spit is best accessed at low tide when the wide sandy terrain opens up for exploration of the extensive marshland and coastal views. The barrier beach is accessible on foot via the boardwalk from nearby Preble Property or by boat; direct parking is limited and visitors must respect neighborhood parking restrictions. Try Sydney Ice Pond for a similar trail experience featuring wetland.
