Since 1963, Kiptopeke has been the site of bird population studies. Kiptopeke offers recreational access to the Chesapeake Bay along with an opportunity to explore a unique habitat featuring a major flyway for migratory birds, rare animal species, and a coastal dune environment. Volunteers capture, examine, weigh, band and release resident and migratory birds in September and October of each year. Full service and tent campsites, a boat ramp, a seasonal fishing pier, picnic areas, hiking trails, and a guarded swimming area with playground are offered at the park.
