Meeting Location

Meeting Location: Riviera Beach City Marina, 200 E 13th St, Riviera Beach, FL 33404. We will meet at the Peanut Island Shuttle.
Parking Fee: The Peanut Island Shuttle charges a fee for transportation to the island. The cost is $20 plus tax for adults and $10 plus tax for children ten years old and under. Cash or credit card is accepted. Saltwater Studies will cover the shuttle cost for registered students. Parents and siblings will be responsible to pay their fee directly to Peanut Island Shuttle if they would like to visit the island.

Class Topic

This month we will be discussing dolphins. We will spend the morning discussing the topic and reviewing the homework assignment. Students must bring their notes from their completed homework assignment with them to class so that they can participate in the class discussion.

Water or Beach Activity

Students will be led on a guided snorkel in the waters around Peanut Island, weather permitting. Students will snorkel in the shallow waters of Peanut Island, an area that is home to several artificial reef structures creating habitats for a variety of marine life.

Appropriate Attire: Students must wear their swimsuits and beach-appropriate clothing and bring their own snorkel and mask. Swim fins are not allowed during Saltwater Studies events, but water shoes are recommended as an alternative. All students will be required to wear snorkel vests provided by Saltwater Studies as a safety precaution.
