 Join a Conservancy of Southwest Florida volunteer guide for a free guided walk on the boardwalk, beach, and back bay areas of this beautiful Collier County park and learn about the secret lives of the flora and fauna of this captivating and biologically-rich area.

Clam Pass County Park offers a beautiful beach and a scenic boardwalk through a unique habitat. Learn about the special trees that dominate in this unusual environment and why they are important to all of us. See beautiful shore birds and maybe a surprise visitor or two, such as the not to be forgotten pileated woodpecker. Learn about our shells and see what shells and other treasures such as shark’s teeth the Gulf may have delivered to the shore. Walks 1.5-2 hours.



Can you tell what little critter left his paw print in the sand?
