Join KELT staff members and Maine Master Naturalist Volunteers to discover the fascinating, vibrant world of the intertidal zone. This event is great for explorers of all ages! 

Participants will meet participants at Griffith's Head, in the grassy picnic area between the parking lot and wooden roadway bridge. Activities include a tidal pool scavenger hunt and a demonstration on how to spot the differences between common seaweed species.  Folks will learn about the invasive European green crab and how it is impacting this tidal habitat and the animals that live there.

The program offered by KELT is free and open to the public. Participants will need to pay the state park entrance fee.
