Dive into the exciting world of marine biology! Campers will discover the wonder and beauty of marine life as they explore the many facets of marine biology. They’ll journey from the tropics to the poles, inspect arctic food webs, simulate coral reef adaptations and survey everything from the great river deltas to the Mariana Trench. They’ll collaborate to bring the California sea otter back from the brink of extinction and track great white sharks across the open ocean, learning and answering important sea-dwelling questions about the variety of the oceans and the differences in ecosystems. Through action-packed activities, campers discover the physical and geological sciences that underpin all ocean life like density, buoyancy, heat transfer, plate tectonics and the water cycle and get hands-on experience dissecting a squid, learn about the threats to manatees and gaining an understanding of fish tagging as an important conservation technique.
