Tour Details & Safety Information for Confirmed Registrants
Birding tours are typically held on unpaved roads with rock, gravel, or mud with the potential of crossing shallow water. Participants must be prepared to board a bus or boat and traverse several miles of uneven terrain. We recommend bringing telescopes, binoculars, water, and adequate sun protection. For your safety, please wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes. Open-toe shoes, sandals, or thin-soled sneakers are not permitted.
The birding tour may be canceled in the event of high winds or inclement weather. Please check your email 24 hours before the event to be sure there has been no unforeseen cancellation. This walk may be canceled on the morning of the event due to unforeseen circumstances. Click here for the full list of safety guidelines and site rules.
Our birding tours are popular and often have a waitlist. If you need to cancel, please notify us immediately by emailing Maryland Ports Birding at birdingtours@menv.com, so your spot can be allocated to someone on the waitlist.
