Description
Enjoy the beauty of the Ipswich River by canoeing under the light of the full moon. Watch for ducks, herons, and other birds, as well as bats flitting above the water. You might see beavers, muskrats, or river otters swimming by or feeding at the river's edge. As the light fades, listen to owls calling and the sounds of other nocturnal animals. We'll stop for a rest on one of our islands for a quick snack break. The full moon will light our way on our return paddle to the canoe landing.
