Join GTM Research Reserve docents from 9:00am-11:00am on the 3rd Saturday of the month for a Beach Exploration walk. Learn about the animals that call the beach home while collecting seashells and sharks teeth. This is a “Beaches 101” experience the entire family will enjoy.
The hike begins at the GTM Visitor Center where you will learn about the different habitats on GTM’s beautiful seashore. The group will then walk across the street to the beach for this salty adventure!
After the walk, you can come back to the GTM Research Reserve Visitor Center, enjoy our many miles of trails, or spend the day on the beach!
The event is free. However, be sure to click on the event website link to reserve your spot! Registration is required.
No fee for parking in front of the Visitor Center.
Please Note: There is no Beach Exploration in September. Instead we are participating in the International Coastal Cleanup.
