Tip #4 Nashawannuck Pond is about a mile long - twice what you can see from the dock!! Go out past the bend and it’s a different world!!

Tip #3 they’re cormorants. The dark birds? Cormorants. The ones with the log necks? Yes, cormorants. But we have heron and osprey and lots of others. Keep your eyes open!!

Tip #2 - the time of day effects what you see!! Turtles are out sunning themselves on logs in the full sun, but there’s not much shade. Evenings on the pond are beautiful and you may increase the chances of seeing our crepuscular friends.

Celebrating 10 years of Valley Paddler! Tip #1 choose your boat based upon who you’re with and what you want to see!

If you want to hang out with 3 other people and get a quad work out in, take a pedal boat!
Fishing? Our canoes have pole holders.

Proud to support the Easthampton Public Library youth summer reading program! Their young readers logged over 12,000 hours and 25 motivated readers who logged 48 hours earned a pedal boat ride on the pond!!! I 💙 📖

Ponds full of gratitude to our amazing sponsor, Valley Paddler for giving to our readers and to our community. If you haven’t rented a boat yet this summer, there is still lots of time!
