During camps, children learn about a variety of marine science concepts, the issues our oceans and coast face, and what they and their families can do to protect them. Children will also have time to experience and explore the coastal environment and play with ocean-themed games. They will be introduced to scientific monitoring and marine-themed art and poetry, all while respecting social distancing.
