Delmarva Birding Weekends is offering small group tours with these COVID-19 guidelines in place:
- We will establish and enforce safe social distancing standards during field trips.
- Our guides and providers will wear face coverings during the trips. We will request that our customers do the same.
- Tour group sizes are reduced in accordance with current COVID-19 restrictions.
- Trips occurring at the same location may have staggered starts to avoid crowding.
- We will contract only kayak outfitters that have been approved for operation in Maryland and Delaware. We will abide by the guidelines established for these businesses.
- All trip registrations must be paid online through our website before embarking.
- We will sanitize all work surfaces and offer extra masks and hand sanitizer to the extent possible and where practical. We encourage our customers to bring their own hand sanitizer, mask, and/or wipes for use during birding trips.
- We will not share optics or other equipment. There will be no shared views through spotting scopes.
Paddling Trip Tips & Policies:

- When paddling, protect your valuables in a dry bag.
- Try to arrive a little early before the scheduled trip departs so that you don’t get left behind.
