Homeschool Field Trip Programs
HOMESCHOOL FIELD TRIPS
Students and adults alike will discover the Indian River Lagoon by land and sea! Dolphins, manatees, birds, and other marine life may be encountered as the naturalist describes the lagoon and inhabitants aboard our 40 person pontoon. Participants will disembark onto a remote island in the lagoon to explore in depth. Each month will focus on a different topic, providing an engaging educational experience.
This program is offered from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. once each month throughout the school year.
