Come join PFH for the first large-water trip of the year! We begin our trip at the at the Rainbow Diner, Brick NJ for a sit-down lunch before moving across the highway to Forge Pond to offload and begin car shuttling to the end.
Our six (6) mile trip begin in the pond and rides outgoing tide through marsh, reeds, and into larger semi-opens waters. Our tour keeps to the south along the Brick Township shorelines, paddling past spectacular waterfronts and affluent properties.
The paddle has two pull-out locations, one before the Mantaloking horn and the other at the Bridge Park. We can decide day-of where we will end.
