IN-PERSON PROGRAM 

Join us for an intertidal walk with OceanWise! Learn about the many creatures that call Stanley Park tide pools home and help us monitor for invasive European Green Crab. Green Crabs have started popping up in the Pacific Northwest and are a threat to native species. An Ocean Wise educator will teach you how to identify the different species of native crabs, monitor for green crabs and what to do if you find one.
