Additional Description:
The various shoreline conditions found in the park increase ecological diversity and act as a protective buffer during storms and major floods. A constructed version of a natural coastline environment, the salt marsh creates a dynamic tidal ecosystem. Its changing tides and fluctuating water levels help establish a vital shallow-water habitat for fish, birds, and other aquatic life.
