Bonita Wetlands, Restoration & Bird Watching Tours
Bird Watching: 6 a.m. - 9 a.m.
Restoration Hike: 9:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.
The 21-acre Bonita Creek restoration site is the main wildlife link from Upper Newport Bay to the San Joaquin Hills and was restored in association with the construction of the 73 Toll Road. This creek was restored from a narrow rip-rap lined ditch and underground culverts to a viable riparian habitat rich with wildlife. This easy three-mile hike will be primarily located on top of the slopes that buffer the riparian area. The walk will include a path along San Diego Creek to a restored saltwater marsh. Bird watchers will see wetland, riparian, and coastal sage scrub bird species. The restoration hike will focus on plants and the methods used to restore the creek and riparian habitat.
