Salt Pond Safari

Posted by SaltPondsCoalition

Our Salt Pond Safaris introduce children to the wonders of the salt ponds. Using a seine net, we catch a variety of aquatic creatures to introduce to the children. The children get hands-on experience with salt pond ecology--plan on them getting wet!

Safaris last about 1.5 hours. There is a short walk on a flat trail to the pond. Minimal shade. Bring your own sunscreen. Bathroom facilities located in the parking lot.

Safaris meet at the Fish and Wildlife Service parking area at the end of the access road in Ninigret Wildlife Refuge, Charlestown, RI.

Directions: Take the Ninigret Park exit off of Rt. 1 North, then enter Ninigret Park on the right about 1/4 mile later. Follow the access road to the end.

Pre-registration required. Email Liz at Liz@joinsaltponds.com
