Take in beautiful views of the Crane Wildlife Refuge while learning about estuary critters and how life survives in this ever changing environment at the Crane Boat Dock. Families will conduct measurements of water quality and weather, census native vs. Non-native crabs, collect and observe plankton using field microscopes, and observe the ever-shifting tides. Join this program to discover a lesser-known area of the Crane Estate, on the backside of Crane Beach along the picturesque Castle Neck River.
This program is part of the CoastalExplorers spring monthly series, highlighting different habitats around our coast at The Crane Estate.
