Greater Farallones Virtual Tidepool Excursion
Date/Time: Saturday, August 7, 2021 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM EDT
Join Greater Farallones sanctuary naturalists for a virtual tidepool adventure at Duxbury Reef in Bolinas, California. Using an innovative storymap with photos, videos, maps, and a 3D intertidal model, we will explore the amazing intertidal habitat at the dynamic edge of the sea. You’ll learn how the animals and algae survive under ever-changing conditions. We’ll explore the creatures of the intertidal including octopuses, chitons, anemones, sea stars, sea urchins, and nudibranchs that call this biodiversity hotspot “home.” Learn important tidepool etiquette and helpful techniques to plan your own trip to the intertidal.
