There’s more to a barrier island than sand and water – the beach is a thriving habitat with a dynamic dune system and fascinating plants and animals, and higher elevations are covered by lush forest. On this excursion, our educator will lead walk through the maritime forest, then on to the dunes and beach. You will learn about plants that Indians and colonists used and the benefits of an intact dune system. You’ll see many coastal animals; occasional highlights include osprey, alligators, and dolphins. You’ll dig for mole crabs that live in the surf zone and chase scuttling ghost crabs. We’ll bring hand nets and critter containers so we can get an up-close look.**Your reservation is NOT secure until you purchase tickets!**First fill the Reservation form (your reservation is NOT secure until you purchase tickets!)
