**Paddling & Exploration:**
From this access point, paddlers can explore Little Egg Harbor's protected estuarine waters and connect to nearby waterways. The location puts you near two significant natural areas: the Jacques Cousteau National Estuarine Research Reserve on the Mullica River and Great Bay, and the Edwin B.
