Places near NYC? (within 2-3 hours)


Terri

Recommended Posts

This is my first time posting.

My husband is a huge fossil enthusiast. Our two sons and I would like to surprise him by taking him on a fossil hunting excursion for Father's Day.

We live in NYC, and are hoping to find someplace that's fun, that's within 2-3 hours of the city, and that also has the opportunity to hike or swim or do one other activity of some kind.

Any suggestions?

Thank you for any help or ideas you can share - we really appreciate it.

Hello, and Welcome to the Forum. :) 

 

Your closest option is probably Big Brook, in Holmdel, NJ. 

See this website for great photos of what you can find there.  :) 

Good luck. ;) 

Regards,

Hello, Terri, and a very warm welcome to TFF from Morocco. :)

I can't help, but I hope your husband (and you and your sons) find somewhere suitable, have fun and find some exciting fossils! 

Life's Good!
