Field Trips for Schools, Scouts, homeschool and Recreation Groups

We use nature as our classroom, where students can engage, experiment, and explore.

Explore ​coastal environments and marine life with Littoral Society educators. Our interactive hands-on programs connect kids to the coast in a way they will never forget. Programs are ideal for school field trips, homeschool groups, a trip designed to obtain a scout badge for scout groups, and private and municipal camps/recreation groups.

All programs are 2.5 hours unless requested otherwise. We will design the perfect program to meet your needs and age group.
​
Program pricing:
