About this event

In this full day camp, children ages 10-12 will learn about a variety of ocean animals through crafts, play, and Aquarium exploration. Join our Aquarium educators for five full days of exploration! Each day, campers ages 10-12 will explore two unique topics, diving deeper to understand animal adaptations, habitats, and ocean science. There will be opportunities for games, crafts, feeding animals, Aquarium tours, and making memories with fellow campers. Coastal Explorers will also embark on a whale watch tour into the Pacific. We can’t wait to see you! * Please note that the 2.5 hour Whale Watch boat experience is a required portion of this camp and we are unable to make accommodations for those that do not want to participate. If your camper may not enjoy the boat excursion, consider booking Junior Biologist instead.
