Silver Lake Sign East

This is stop #32 on the Belmar Treasure Trail, with another of our Silver Lake educational signs. These colorful signs are part of an interactive educational initiative developed in 2005 by the Belmar Environmental Commission in partnership with the New Jersey Marine Sciences Consortium, New Jersey Sea Grant program, and the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection. On this sign, you can learn about the geology and history of this small waterway, one of several coastal lakes that you’ll find up and down the Jersey Shore. Silver Lake is home to a variety of aquatic life and waterfowl, and is a migration stop for many birds. The macadam trail around the lake is popular for jogging, strolling, dog walking and more.
