Class offered March – April 2015
Beach Naturalists is for people who want to discover and explore shorelines and sea life. Nearly surrounded by water, the Kitsap Peninsula is an amazing place to learn about the stars, clams, crabs, and other cool critters, seaweeds, and plants that live on our beaches. We also discuss Salish Sea oceanography and shoreline living, conservation, and restoration.
In addition to the training and resources, we also provide and connect you with opportunities to volunteer in activities around Kitsap County, including acting as a naturalist for community beach explorations and children’s field trips, and conducting beach profiles, sea star monitoring, and outreach at local events.
This class is open to the public, taught by local and regional experts, and covers topics such as:
- Invertebrates and seaweeds
- Birds and bugs
- Shoreline conservation
- Oceanography
- Interpretative skills
