The Silver Strand Nature's Bridge to Discovery is an interactive environmental concept that runs along the narrow, eight-mile-long environmentally significant stretch of land known as Silver Strand. The Bridge to Discovery is a paved pathway running the length of the Silver Strand and featuring interpretive panels with information on the area on the way, along with subtle artistic touches such as relief and granite sculptures, engraved messages in railings, and laser etched tiles. Organic shapes are inspired by the beautiful natural landscapes of eelgrass, marshlands, and the ever-present wind and discovery points along the trail aim to educate and inspire visitors about the ecological riches of the Strand. Other features include a wooden deck in the shape of a bird’s wing overlooking a California Least Tern preserve.
