Let's celebrate our beaches, tide pools, and salt marshes with a full day of fun outdoor/indoor activities! Come to Joppa Flatts to enjoy a day of great and educational fun!

Handle live tide pool animals from our 110-gallon touch tank, go on a guided salt marsh walk, and enjoy a virtual whale watch trip.

Ages 7 and up can attempt to stop erosion, design a buoyancy experiment, and perform percolation tests with sand and soil. For ages 2 to 6, we'll have storytelling, crafts, and small group games about the beach.

Weather permitting, there will be backyard games and art projects, including a collage mural representing the trash we collected from our Plum Island COASTSWEEP on September 22!

Let's all enjoy the day and give thanks for our beautriful river, estuary, and beaches.
