The Stockport Flats comprise nearly five miles of shoreline,
marshes, islands and peninsulas, most of which are accessible
primarily by boat. The Stockport Flats reserve is a five-mile, narrow mosaic
of landforms including: Nutten Hook (a bedrock outcropping); Gay's Point and
Stockport Middle Ground Island (dredge features); Stockport Creek. The
Stockport Flats encompass 1543 acres and are dominated by freshwater tidal
wetlands including subtidal shallows; intertidal mudflats; intertidal
shores; tidal marshes and floodplain swamps.
