American Littoral Society
Protecting the Coast through Education, Conservation and Advocacy
|
The American Littoral Society promotes the study and conservation of marine life and habitat, protects the coast from harm, and empowers others to do the same.
Since 1961 we have empowered people to care for the coast through advocacy, conservation, and education. We not only provide a voice for the coast, but also give concerned citizens the knowledge and tools they need to raise their voices with us. When we restore habitat, our objective is not only to restore a dune or rebuild an oyster reef, but also to motivate people to invest “sweat equity” into a piece of the coast, take ownership and become committed stewards. When we educate, we don’t merely provide books, CDs, or handouts. We lead students young and old into the water to get their feet wet and their hands muddy. Sitting at a computer or reading a book, people may develop an interest in the coast; standing knee deep in sea foam with sand between their toes, they will develop a passion for the coast. |

Since 1961, the American Littoral Society has been caring for the coast in New Jersey and beyond. Based on Sandy Hook, we see the beauty and feel the energy that draws people to coastal communities. We work to protect and restore that splendor -- through programs such as Operation Oyster. We also strive to bring people onto the sand and into the water so they can gain a deeper understanding of how nature works on our beaches and in our bays.
You can help us continue and expand that work by attending Littorally Local, an entertaining evening of food and fun that will celebrate the shore and everything it has to offer, while supporting our efforts to protect it.
The cruise on the Navesink River launches at 4 p.m. Dinner will be served at OceanFirst Bank following the cruise.You can help us continue and expand that work by attending Littorally Local, an entertaining evening of food and fun that will celebrate the shore and everything it has to offer, while supporting our efforts to protect it.

Public Walk (FULL)
Wednesday, Oct. 30
7:00 - 9:00 p.m.
$10 for Members

Get into the Halloween spirit with a moonlight walk around Historic Fort Hancock, where ghosts have been known to linger.
Under the guidance of Jeff Dement, American Littoral Society Fish Tagging Director, participants will learn some history of Sandy Hook, as well as where all the bodies are buried. After the walk, participants can gather at Littoral Society headquarters for cider and fall snacks.
Since the Sandy Hook Spooky Walk is one of the Society's most popular annual outings, this year we decided to expand it to two nights so that Society members don't need to worry about missing out.
On Tuesday, Oct. 29 there will be a members-only Spooky Walk. The same walk is available for the public on Wednesday, Oct. 30.
A special code, only available to members, is required to register for the members-only event. An email has been sent to current members with the code to register. If you are a member and did not receive the code, please keep an eye out for another member email in the near future. Or call 732-291-0055 for more information.
