Description:
The boardwalk takes you right into the marsh so you get an up close and personal experience of what the marsh is all about. We saw flowers, a raccoon, anoles, and of course the marsh birds. It was a wonderful way to get out into the heart of a marsh. See this link for photos and more information: https://www.hikingproject.com/trail/7019922/chesser-island-boardwalk
