You might not be thinking Jersey shore, beaches, and Sandy Hook with a winter storm hitting NJ this weekend, but there are shore activities all year round.
Here are a few possibilities, including one that you can do from home.
Searching for Seals in the Surf, Sandy Hook Lighthouse, Sunday, March 13, 11 am - 1 pm

Worm Moon – Full Moon Walk, Beach Plaza C, Friday, March 18, 7 pm - 9 pm
The Worm Moon is the last full moon of winter. It is often named the worm moon because of the abundance of earthworms emerging from the ground, leaving trails in the thawed frost. Join a park ranger on this trek along the bay and enjoy the opportunity to view the beautiful landscape by the light of the moon. Space is limited, please call (732) 872-5970 to make a reservation.
Coffee with a Ranger on Facebook Live, Monday, March 28, 10 am - 11 am
Meet the park’s Community Volunteer Ambassador (CVA) and learn about the Piping Plover and Nesting Shorebird Stewardship Volunteer Program at Sandy Hook. The CVA program is a 50-week internship experience managed in partnership with the National Park Service and Conservation Legacy. The intern will focus their efforts on building community involvement, engaging new and diverse audiences, and recruiting volunteers. Please join as the live video starts or pre-register in the events tab on the park’s Facebook page - @GatewayNPS
