Hudson River Islands State Park

Accessible only by boat, Hudson River Islands State Park facilities are concentrated on the islands of Gay’s Point and Stockport Middle Ground. These islands are fragile communities with many rare and endangered plant and animal species. Day-use facilities include picnic areas with grills and nature trail. Fishing is popular and transient camping is allowed.

Please Note: There are no docks. Boats must be moored off the island or visitors can bring their kayaks/canoes on shore. It is a first come first serve park for camping. There is no entrance fee and no reservations are needed.

Kayak Back on Truck

It was a rough paddle back here, as the current was pushing the otherways, and there was a stiff southernly wind, helping to push me north. With the rough surf, I got no pictures though.
