Where do we meet at the start of the event?

Event registration will be set-up at the Oceanside State Park Recreation Area. Look for a table set-up in the grassy area out front the bathroom building.

What is the walk like out to the tidepool area?

Currently, there is a nice accumulation of sand from the beach access all the way to the tidepool area. Interpretive Guides will lead participants around the front of Maxwell Point. There is access through a man-made tunnel providing return access even during high tide.

What animals will we get to see?

Each tidepool tour offers a different mix of wild animals to observe. Species common in this area include ochre sea stars, granular claw crabs, acorn barnacles, sea lemon nudibranchs, oyster catchers, purple sea urchins, six-rayed stars, tar spot sea cucumbers, western gulls, & giant green anemones.
