Description:

Dive into a week-long learning adventure with our October Break Marine Science Camp, where young explorers will uncover the wonders of the Pacific Coast and San Francisco Bay marine habitats. This immersive program offers an in-depth investigation into local marine ecosystems, revealing how animals adapt uniquely to their environments across different habitats. Camp themes cover local wetlands, Pacific Coast, and oceanic habitats.

Children will enjoy hands-on experiences with live animals, utilize scientific research equipment, engage in team-building activities, and most importantly, have fun while staying safe. The camp includes four exciting days on-site, taking advantage of our outdoor teaching spaces, and one thrilling day aboard our 90' research vessel to explore the South San Francisco Bay.
