Beach Discovery Walks Saturdays 2 - 3 pm |
Explore on the beach with a marine educator to sift the wet sand to find creatures that live in the intertidal zone and use a seine net to see what lives in the surf. Learn about the shells, sea oats and the movement of the sands. |

Marsh Discovery Walks Fridays 2 -3 pm |
The mainland is protected by thousands of acres of tidal marsh teeming with fiddler crabs and snails living among the marsh grass. Bring your old shoes with closed toes so that you can walk in the marsh mud on your journey with a marine educator. Children should be 4 or older. |
