Sedge Island Natural Resource Education Center, located in Barnegat Bay off Island Beach State Park, is in New Jersey’s only marine conservation zone. Sedge Island provides participants with a hands-on immersive salt marsh education experience, exploring both the natural and cultural history of the area. Conservation is the underlying concept taught throughout your time at Sedge. A short 15-minute boat ride from the Sedge Dock at Island Beach State Park takes you to the island. The renovated duck hunting lodge dates to over 100 years old, and is full of history of famous sportsman, historians and conservationists. Sedge Island continues to fuel memories as it is home to scientists, researchers, and explorers who wish to experience the “magic of sedge.” Each day the sunrise wakes the house, and the marsh comes alive around it!
