Trap Pond State Park
Laurel, Delaware
Open Daily 8 a.m. to Sunset
Boating
Boating among the baldcypress is a favorite pastime at the park. Rowboats, pedal boats, canoes and kayaks can be rented during the summer season, and the park interpreter hosts narrated pontoon boat tours on weekends and holidays, from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day. A boat launching ramp can accommodate small motorized boats for fishing or scenic excursions. Anglers on the water or shore may land largemouth bass, pickerel, crappie, and bluegills. One of the streams that flows out of Trap Pond has been marked as a wilderness canoe trail for those who wish to explore the swamp's interior.
