Nearby is a collection of wrecked boats known as the Barge Graveyard. These barges and tugboats were used to harvest and transport sand and gravel, which was mined by private companies from the 1920s to the 1960s. Many of these abandoned boats have morphed into small islands. They are best viewed up close by canoe or kayak, but may also be glimpsed from land.

South of Richmond is the Dutch Gap Conservation Area. Here you can take a beautiful hike along the marine lagoon of the James River. You can see marshes filled with birds of all species.
