Coastal Exploration

July 27 - August 7
Note: Campers need to bring lunch each day.

There is a whole world beneath the sea that most land creatures could never know. Campers get your gills ready to take a look under the sea. You will be engaged in hands-on studies of diverse marine habitats. Daily observations and specimen collection will provide a new insight to campers on how the marine world works. Daily activities include canoeing, surfcasting, seining, saltmarsh hike, plankton and horseshoe crab studies and snorkeling.

*Note: This program will take place at Caumsett State Historic Park. Campers should bring swimsuits and/or a change of clothing.
