Beach Biology Field Trip

Did you know that some Nantucketers love to eat mole crabs? Join MMA staff to learn about the fascinating ecology, and geology of Nantucket’s unique shoreline. We will explore and investigate the shells and bones of various types of marine animals and we may even observe mole crabs, sand fleas, shore birds, beach insects, and perhaps even seals! By the end of the afternoon, you will be an expert Nantucket beachcomber!

This program is designed to be interesting for adults and children ages 10 and older. Beach Biology meets at the Sconset Market Parking Lot, Nantucket MA. All registered children must be accompanied by a registered adult to participate in this program. Pre-registration is required as this program meets off site. Registration closes 1 hour before event start time.

Personal transport to and from the meeting location is required to participate.
