Dive Into Little Narragansett Bay: A Marine Life & Watershed Adventure!

Join Napatree Science Advisors and Naturalists for an exciting 2-mile exploration of Little Narragansett Bay! Discover the fascinating connections between the Bay, Rhode Island’s coastal ecosystems, surrounding watershed, and the Napatree Point Conservation Area.

Along the way, we’ll uncover the vital role Little Narragansett Bay plays in supporting marine life and explore how water, wildlife, and habitats are all connected. You’ll learn about the species that call these waters home and the importance of protecting this coastal ecosystem.

The walk will include a seine net pull, where our staff will carefully collect marine life from the bay using a 20-foot seine net for an up-close experience.

Open to all ages. Participants under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult.

This program is designed to last 90 minutes so participants can use the free parking along Bay Street.

This program will start at 9:00 AM and meet at The Napatree Point Conservation Area entrance.

Registration is required.

Light rain will not cancel these events, but a downpour will. Program cancellations will be communicated via email.
