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.
