A treasure-trove of historic discoveries and captivating natural beauty awaits at Cannon’s Point Preserve. The main dirt trail includes many stops, passing maritime forest and marshes, including numerous middens dating back to 2,500 BCE. The jewel of the preserve is the site of 19th century plantation ruins located approximately 2.5 miles into the trail, which in total is a 5-mile round-trip. A true wilderness experience, the terrain is suitable for all ages and also makes for great off-road biking. Make sure to check the preserve’s hours and don’t leave without experiencing the view from the top of the observation tower.
