Description: Paddle a two-man kayak through the Upper
Newport Bay Ecological Reserve while a trained Naturalist
interprets the ?Back Bay? for you. The Back Bay is a salt

are hosts to thousands of migrating birds. The guide will
discuss the history of the bay, and the native plants,
birds, animals and marine life.
