Tidepool Hikes

Presented by Ocean Institute at Ocean Institute

Explore the world between tides.  Join the Ocean Institute for a tidepool hike led by one of our expert naturalists.

The hike will take us into the rocky Marine Conservation Area located directly behind the Ocean Institute. Families can explore the area and search for snails, crabs, sea stars, and other animals that make the tidepools their home. The winter months are the best time to explore these magical marine ecosystems!
