Registration is open now for the Ocean Institute’s Rocky Seashores, Kelp Forests, and the Deep Sea summer program for children ages 6-8 on August 3 & 4, 10 & 11, 17 & 18, 1:30 – 4 p.m.
Come explore amazing habitats of the sea and learn about animals that live there. This program will highlight a different subject each week so participants may choose one week or all three.
We will learn about rocky seashores through hands-on experiences in our Discovery Pool with sea stars and anemones. We will visit an enchanted kelp forest and discover the creatures that like to hide there. Finally, we will investigate the deep sea and the glowing adaptations needed to survive.
Rocky Seashores: August 3 or 4
Kelp Forests: August 10 or 11
The Deep Sea: August 17 or 18
Cost is $45 per day, or become an Ocean Institute member and receive a discounted $30 per day price.
