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. Other programs in this series include Sand Dune Safari (Sunday, 4/13) and Shoreline Shipwreck Scholars (Sunday 6/1). You can register for one, or get a 15% discount if you register for all three. To access this discount contact CraneOutdoors@thetrustees.org to get the coupon code before you sign up.

CraneExplorer events are family-friendly educational programs and hikes for all ages. Not just a walk in the woods, these family-friendly experiences teach kids and delight adults by exploring the wonder of our coastal habitats and the rich history of the Crane Estate. Best suited for children ages 5+
