Beach Discovery at Parker River

Parker River National Wildlife Refuge and Mass Audubon's Joppa Flats Education Center are collaborating to offer visitors an opportunity to discover the different animals that live on the beach. Visitors can stop by the tent adjacent to the first boardwalk to the beach. Through hands-on educational activities, visitors will discover different habitat zones and what animals use these habitats.  Visitors will have an opportunity to explore and touch live tide pool animals such as crabs, hermit crabs and sea urchins provided by Mass Audubon's Joppa Flats Education Center.

• This is a drop-in program and pre-registration is not required.
• The program is great for families and appropriate for all ages.
• In case of inclement weather, the program will be in the Visitor Center next to the Lot 1 restrooms.
