About the event
Explore the ocean under cover of darkness!
Join North Star Naturalist on the coast for an evening of exploration with flashlights, blacklights, and moonlight. Under the stars, discover a whole galaxy of tiny worlds among kelp-covered rocks, each filled with amazing animals that survive and thrive at the edge of land and sea. When the sun goes down, the tidepools come alive with new, nocturnal faces. This is a slow-paced, curiosity driven event with highly limited capacity to allow for an intimate experience.
Expect to see: Crabs, snails, worms, lobsters, anemones, brittle stars, barnacles, shrimp, mussels, and fluorescence!
Hope to see: Nudibranchs (sea slugs), fish, sea stars, octopus, and maybe something new!
This 90-minute event is for ages 8 and up, and requires steady footing and balance while we navigate the rocky shoreline.
Meet Your Guide
Hi! My name is Cypress
As a naturalist guide and science communicator, my goal is simple: connect people with nature.
So they might want to conserve it someday.
So they can lead happier, healthier lives.
So they can experience the deep satisfaction of understanding the world around us.
I do this through immersive tours, community events, custom experiences, and real, human conversations.
I look forward to exploring with you soon!
