* Please Note: The moon will be fairly bright and almost full tonight. If you choose to bring a flashlight it is best to use only a red-light flashlight. If you do not have a red light flashlight, please ask at our admissions desk when you arrive for some red cellophane and a rubber band to cover up the lens of your white light flashlights. Otherwise using white light will disturb yours and other visitor's night vision while on the boardwalk.
