Description:

Beach Explorers (Gr. 4-7)

Visit the Lumberman's Arch beach at low tide and explore the incredibly diverse and abundant life in the intertidal zone. 

Low tide offers us a glimpse at fascinating animals and plants that have adapted to life in and out of the sea. Hunt for crabs, sort seaweeds, and find out what else lives or eats on the seashore, while students discover important human connections to the oceans. 

Beach Explorers is a tide-dependent program and is available in spring between April and June. For all grades, Beach explorers is a one-and-a-half-hour program. 

Read the Beach Explorers Teacher Information Package for information on curriculum connections, meeting location, preparing for the program and more.
