Jamaica Bay is one of the main way-points for east coast migrating birds in the spring and fall.
|
Not far from our dock is a network of natural areas where many different bird species thrive. Most notable is the JoCo Marsh, the largest section of original salt marsh remaining in the bay.
|
There's also Rockaway Community Park which boasts many raptors and songbirds in its 200 acre mixed coastal habitat. We sail to select locations for the best viewing opportunities.
|
Sunrise is the best time to view Jamaica Bays migrating bird population. Getting on water in the early morning is a peaceful and invigorating way to start the day. If the wind is too light to sail we will make way under motor.
