We have a few seats left for this guided journey into The Forks...where the Batsto and Mullica Rivers meet.
This area was home to a different scene during the years of the American Revolution. Armed pirate ships anchored in hidden coves, privateers and smugglers held massive auctions of illegal goods, and army deserters and robbers hid in the pines and nearby swamps. Warehouses of munitions and supplies waited ready for use by Washington's army and the rebel cause.
The colorful history revealed is only rivaled by its picturesque beauty. This is a 3-4 hour long tour, and is best for intermediate to experienced paddlers.
Sunday, May 1st starting at 11am! To book, visit www.pinelandsadventures.org/adventure/the-forks-historical-paddle
