Coastal tidal marshes, mudflats and freshwater impoundments offering strong birdlife, migratory staging areas and wide reflective waterscapes. Best at golden hour and low tide for shorebird action and dramatic skies. Refuge is open daylight hours; small parking lots and short boardwalks/observation platforms provide easy access — expect mosquitoes in summer and muddy footing after rain. Weekday mornings and fall migration yield highest bird concentrations.
