Tides is a three-hour drop-off Marine Biology experience for children grades 1st-8th, located at a different beach in Honolulu, Hawaii each week. Nature journals in-hand, students learn about marine creatures, marine plants, birds, tide pools, ecosystems, and sustainability, all in a hands-on, exploratory learning environment.
