LOCATION NOTES:
General Information:
Recreational: the Salem River is a natural stream in South Jersey that empties into the Delaware River near the Delaware Memorial Bridges. It was dammed many years ago to provide a freshwater source for the DuPont Chambers Works and Atlantic City Electric. The river is generally lined with woods. Paddles are out and back.
Difficulty & Must Haves:
Salem River is an easy flat water out and back from the boat/kayak launch. The river is a reservoir with no discernable current. Typical paddles go upstream and return. Lunch break spots are very limited, generally dependent on water levels and dryness.
Nice to Have & Human Interest:
During spring paddles a waterfowl will be evident.
