Dubos Point Wildlife Sanctuary has a pretty little beach a short paddle from our marina. Further out is the JoCo Marsh; the bays largest salt marsh, with several calm meandering creeks that are perfect for paddling during mid to high tide. Or follow the shoreline eastward around Rockaway Community park and hook into Norton cove where you'll find some peculiar sites. Several other picturesque and secluded coves await a bit further eastward.

Ideal factors for canoeing are when the wind is less than 7 knots (8mph). However wind speed above 11 knots (13mph) will prove too challenging and we do not rent canoes at that point.

If you need assistance, call us on the provided 2-way radio or your phone and we will meet you.

High tide and incoming tide can make for a better experience.

The Motts Basin location option is currently selected since it is the nearest tidal forecast to our location. CLICK THE CHART to open WeatherForYou.com and change the Month: +GO to get updates on tides.
