Participants will be led on a guided snorkeling adventure in the shallow water around Peanut Island.

We will meet at the Peanut Island Shuttle Boat located at Riviera Beach City Marina and take the shuttle together from the marina to Peanut Island. The shuttle fee is included for registered students. Parents will need to pay for their own transportation to the island.
