Pier Peer @ Boston Harbor Marina

Underwater lights attract spectacular estuary creatures for you to safely scoop up and observe, while our volunteer naturalists help you identify and learn more about what you’ve found. Also get a glimpse what's deep below with our underwater remotely operated vehicle.

Recommended for those ages 6 and above.

Preregistration is required as there is limited space.

Adults (Ages 13 and older) - $15

Children** (Ages 12 and younger) - $3

Or you can purchase a membership and receive discounts on program and event tickets plus free admission to Puget Sound Estuarium for a whole year! Check out our website for details.

**Children must wear life jackets during this event and be accompanied by an adult. There must be at least one adult per two children to ensure supervision and safety. We have some life jackets to borrow, but please bring your own if you can.

We have a discount that offers free registration to individuals or families with an EBT card. To utilize this new program email [email protected] with a photo of your EBT card and a valid ID.

Due to a change in Eventbrite policy, there will now be a processing fee associated with each ticket purchase.

Attire/Gear - We highly recommend that each participant bring their own flashlight! Wear non-slip shoes as the dock can be slippery and dress for the weather. Not a bad idea for those with children to have spare clothes and towel in the car.

Cancellation - We reserve the right to cancel Pier Peer due to low registration (under 8 participants) or bad weather. Our weather policy is based on Olympia School District closures, i.e. if the Olympia School District closes its schools based on weather, we will also cancel Pier Peer. In the case of above cancellations, the Estuarium will make every effort to work with registrants to reschedule.

All other cancellations (e.g. no shows or personal reasons) will not be rescheduled, nor refunded.

Liability Waiver - All participants must sign a liability waiver that will be provided in the registration process.
