FEATURED EVENTS

Mystic Aquarium and Project Oceanology team up to create an amazing camp! In this week-long program, campers participate in 3 days of research and exploration aboard Project Oceanology’s vessels to discover life in and around Long Island Sound. Then, spend two days at Mystic Aquarium exploring the work being done to protect African penguins, investigate whale snot and learn about efforts to protect horseshoe crabs. Campers spend time on the water, participate in experiments, meet with expert scientists and even go behind-the-scenes to learn about the many conservation opportunities taking place locally.

Mystic Aquarium and Project Oceanology are once again teaming up for a week of habitat exploration. Held at both facilities, this camp is specially designed for budding marine biologists. Jointly taught by instructors from both organizations, your camper will be led on a journey of investigation to discover how animals survive in endangered ecosystems, adapt to invasive species threats, and how some animals survive at the deepest parts of the sea. Extended day is not offered for this camp.
