The Hunting Island marshwalk (boardwalk) extends across the lush marsh ground to a small island and provides a magnificent platform for viewing the nature, wildlife and also for crabbing. The marshwalk is located on the west side of the park on Hwy 21. It is built out of wood and is supported with creosote pilings. The war scenes for the movie Forrest Gump were shot near this marshwalk. The wildlife here, as well as the beautiful sunsets, makes the marshwalk an excellent photographers spot. During the summer months, a naturalist gives guided tours from this marshwalk and shares interesting facts about the marsh, vegetation, wildlife and it's importance to mankind. |
