About this Event
This guided kayak tour will provide a fascinating insight into the local oyster population and the essential role they play in maintaining the ecological balance of the salt marsh. During this tour we'll visit wild and restored oyster reefs and get to speak to coastal scientists in the field while they are sampling. This beautiful area is a great way to learn more about the oyster ecosystem.
