Boat: Forever Explorers Overview! – Thursday, September 19 at 10:30 am – 1:00 pm | This experience will focus on introducing folks to the Forever Explorer program and offer a taste of what is to come in Fall 2024. Guests will visit an island in the Indian River lagoon for a little exploration and debris cleanup. **This intro boat trip has a discounted cost of $25 per person.**
OCTOBER • THE ART OF NATURE
Boat: An Evening with the Estuary – Wednesday, October 30 at 6:30 – 8:30 pm | As we explore the dusky mangrove forest, we will utilize tools such as a hydrophone, underwater lights, and a trawl to lure creatures in for further observation. What secrets lie in the mangrove forest’s soundscape?
MORE INFO:
Forever Explorers is designed for young-at-heart, lifelong learners and is geared to offer outdoor opportunities for adults who want to explore and better understand their surrounding coastal environment alongside certified naturalists and scientists!
Participants will explore the roles of salt marshes, mudflats and various saltwater plants and animals by visiting different spoil islands on MDC’s pontoon boat, Discovery, as well as through kayak excursions, land-based programs, and conservation activities! Each participant will receive an Adventure Guide binder and pen to document their experiences.
This program features a spring and fall session; each month focuses on a different theme, and each program explores a topic within that theme. Both sessions will conclude with an end-of-season gathering, slide show and prize drawing. There are also wonderful Forever Explorers incentives for those attending multiple programs!
Forever Explorers is only for participants 18+.
Boat (price includes meal): $60 MDC Members | $65 Non-Members
