Our Naturalists will be underneath the Pavilion everyday from 10am -4pm, starting mid June and ending Labor Day weekend. They can answer any questions you might have about our programs, the history of the park, or any natural phenomena you've noticed. They love it when you bring interesting things you've found on the beach and they'll help you to identify them!
