Their presence is a great sign that the mangroves are thriving.

Camping in national forests offers a chance to connect with nature, but responsible practices are essential to protect these landscapes.

Always follow Leave No Trace principles—pack out all trash, minimize campfire impact, and use designated fire rings where allowed.
