We Make Welcome the Wild Child
Once a child has made a connection with nature, it is with them forever. Coastal Expeditions programs and camps are designed to teach them how to interact with this incredible network of creeks and rivers that wind through our local landscape in a safe and comfortable manner.
Our educators teach water safety, paddling techniques, birding, shelling, fossil hunting, crabbing, estuary basics and so much more! We have programs year round, so check it out!
