Participants will be led on a guided kayak through Whiskey Creek in Dania Beach. This is a sheltered waterway lined by mangroves that provides a great opportunity to see a variety of marine life. This is a great location to kayak during the winter months as manatees are frequently seen in the area due to the proximity to the FPL’s warm water discharge on the west side of the nearby Intracoastal Waterway.

Participants will be led on a guided wading tour of Whiskey Creek and participate in a FDEP-permitted scientific study. Hand nets and buckets will be used to catch species such as blue crabs, juvenile fish and hermit crabs. Species will then be identified, photographically documented and measured before being returned to the waterway. Following the event, Saltwater Studies will compile recorded data into a report and submit it to the FDEP. This is an excellent opportunity for people of all ages to be involved in citizen science! Please come prepared to get wet!

Saltwater Studies is excited to offer this full-year comprehensive program for elementary school students that covers a variety of marine life commonly seen in Florida’s marine waters. This class series is designed as a two-year program so that topics are unique during that time frame. Students will meet for class once per month at the beach and learn about a different marine animal each month. Each year includes lessons on four vertebrate and four invertebrate marine animals. Towards the end of the school year, we will enjoy a snorkeling tour in shallow offshore waters where students can spot marine life discussed during the school year.

This Field Course will provide a biblically-based, hands-on overview of various marine species present in South Florida. The intent of this course is to provide detailed information about local marine life, an opportunity to interact with our local marine environment and to encourage students to think critically about how the Bible pertains to science.
