An estuary is a partially enclosed coastal body of brackish water where freshwater from rivers or streams meets and mixes with saltwater from the open sea. Estuaries form transition zones where different ecosystems overlap. The mixing of seawater and freshwater provides high levels of nutrients both in the water column and in sediment, making estuaries among the most productive natural habitats in the world.
The Great Peninsula Conservancy has purchased 27 acres of undeveloped shoreline property adjacent to Burke Bay in Brownsville, the Burke Bay Preserve. This property provides important nesting and foraging habitat for birds, feeding grounds and refuge for young salmon, and habitat for mammals such as river otter and black bear. The property will protect nearly 1,300 feet of shoreline on the estuary, which is used by five different species of salmon and trout, including two species listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act: Chinook salmon and steelhead trout. The protection of this estuary property will help advance regional recovery goals for chinook salmon and southern resident killer whales.

Burke Bay can be navigated by kayak or paddle board at mid to high tide. The bay empties at low tide.
