The park also has a long narrow stretch of marshlands which is home to birds and hundreds of native wildflower and plant species. An off-leash area for dogs is available at the north end of the park.

Everyone from adults to little kids at all astronomical experience levels are invited to head on out to observe the night sky. Stargazers will be able to see Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, the moon and maybe even some globular clusters and galaxies. “Its just another way of appreciating nature and appreciating what’s around us,” says Jim Hoffman, president of the Lowcountry Stargazers.
