I'm headed back to Hunting Island with the kids.

Richard, Jerry and anybody else,

Anything I should look for in particular this time of year?

Matthew,

The place doesn't change much from one season to the next - with the exception of bugs and tourons. Pay close attention to the tides, particularly at sunrise. Low tides give you more possibilities, but high tides can be interesting as well. At low tide, take a walk up to the north end of the island to see the expansive flats. There are several brand-new jetties built and sand renourishment which has taken away some of the beach's character at the south beach, north beach, and in front of the campground. The section between the lighthouse and the campground is the last remaining natural beach area.
