Meeting Location

Mizell-Johnson State Park, 6503 N Ocean Dr, Dania Beach, FL 33004
We will be meeting at the Marina Pavilion located on the west side of the park. Upon entering the park, follow the signs to the marina. There will be a left turn into the marina parking lot about 1 mile after the park entrance. When you enter the marina parking lot, the paved path to the Marina Pavilion is in the northwest corner of the parking lot, just left of the boat ramps.

Entrance Fee: The park entrance fee has been waived for this event. Upon entering the park, tell the park ranger at the entrance that you are attending a Saltwater Studies event.

Class Topic & Learning Activity

This month we will be going snorkeling. Students will be provided with a basic overview of snorkeling equipment and safety before being led on a tour of the shallow waters near the park. This is a great opportunity for students to spot some of the marine life that was discussed during the year.

Water or Beach Activity

For this month, the water activity is snorkeling!

Appropriate Attire: Please remember that both parents and children must be prepared to be in the water. Students should bring their own mask and snorkel. Please also have your child wear a swimsuit, beach-appropriate clothing, water shoes and bring a filled water bottle.
