About This Activity

Animal Adaptations: Campers will collect and observe animals from Long Island Sound and discover how they are adapted to find food and protect themselves from predators! All themed weeks consist of time aboard one of our research vessels and our fleet of Carolina skiffs. Campers embark on a scientific adventure exploring Long Island Sound’s rocky shores, salt marshes, barrier beaches, and more! They will discover the vital role habitats play in our coastal ecosystems by using scientific instruments such as trawl nets, seine nets, plankton nets, and water chemistry kits. Back at Project Oceanology, we’ll reinforce what we have learned through games, art projects, and scientific experiments.
