The clam trail is a fun and educational activity to help young and old to understand Barnegat Bay and how they can enjoy and improve it. People who follow the trail will find "clam clews" and "water wisdom" about shellfish, and how they improve the bay. Kids and adults will learn what everybody or anybody, can do to help the clams help the bay.
The entire clam trail is divided into sub-trails: LBI South, LBI North, Waretown and North, Manahawkin and South. You can decided on the part of the trail that is of most interest to you for a day, week or the entire summer.
Elxplore the Clam Trail as often as you like. The goal is to record the information found on the Fact plaques into the Explorer Log at each location along the Clam Trail.
Remember, exploring is not always easy! Some addresses are general and the Fact Plaque may require some search. There are also new locations popping up along the trail. Check back here from time to time to see the new locations.
