A week long day camp of hands-on, minds-on marine science. Get immersed in all the elements of marine science - biology, chemistry, geology and physics. Cruise the waters of Long Island Sound and do oceanographic research. Study tidal marshes, rocky intertidal zones, sandy beaches and near-shore marine life. Take the data and samples you collect and make scientific discoveries in our modern research labs.
