Citizen Science

April is Citizen Science Month, and we're very proud of the Community Science we've conducted on our tours for decades. For example, our sightings journals were helpful to biologist Brent Hughes when researching the health of our Eelgrass, and Patricia Newman wrote a fantastic book about that research! We encourage everyone to indulge their curiosity and participate! https://elkhorn-slough-safari.myshopify.com/collections/books/products/sea-otter-heroes #citizenscience #CitizenScienceMonth #CommunityScience #WetlandConservation #montereybay

When things start heating up inland, Moss Landing has cool, refreshing ocean breezes. So don't sweat it...SLOUGH IT! Cool off on a relaxing tour of the Elkhorn Slough and enjoy playful Sea Otters, spectacular scenery, and great local restaurants.
