Nov. 23, 2011 - PRLog -- NAPLES, Fla. – Join a Conservancy of Southwest Florida volunteer guide for a free guided walk on the boardwalk, beach, and back bay areas of this beautiful Collier County park and learn about the secret lives of the flora and fauna of this captivating and biologically-rich area.

Nature Walks resume December 1. Clam Pass County Park offers a beautiful beach and a scenic boardwalk through a unique habitat. Beginning December 1, 2011, the Conservancy sponsored nature walks resume on the boardwalk.
