Field Trips

Chaparral to Ocean Science School

Three days $225 per student, $116 per chaperone, Two days $142 per student, $80 per chaperone for 60 - 120 students

Students use hands-on data collection and analysis to study the relationships between living and non-living components of six unique California ecosystems (riparian, oak woodland, chaparral, intertidal, benthic, and pelagic). Evening activities include a nocturnal investigation and campfire skits and songs. A trip to the Ocean Institute concludes the experience and allows students to explore food webs, water quality, life cycles, and tidepools, with an optional trip on our research vessel.
