In spring and summer look for a variety of marsh birds including rails and herons. In winter, this location is a great spot to locate raptors and is one of the best spots in the state to look for Horned Larks.
Located off Seapowet Avenue, the Seapowet Marsh refuge area includes a variety of coastal habitats. There is a parking area along a cobble beach north of the bridge over the Seapowet River and walking or driving access to Seapowet Point. There is a marsh on the point, popular for shellfishing. The beach is a good spot for walking, fishing, bird watching, or enjoying the view of the river. There is also a small gravel boat launch ramp south of the bridge that provides access to an extensive salt marsh and tidal creek area.
