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); Gays 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. 

Part of the Hudson River Islands State Park, the Flats are considered an important spawning and/or nursery ground for a variety of freshwater fish species.
