Bring your children to the Town Park, located just over the Ponquogue Bridge, and explore life under the sea! Meet the educators from the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation for a presentation on marine life, and then help capture undersea creatures using a seine net. Learn more about the influence of the Shinnecock Inlet on the inhabitants of Shinnecock Bay, as you examine up-close and safely release an amazing variety of crabs, small fish, mollusks and even shrimp. Last year we met a seahorse!

All attendees must wear water shoes to protect feet and be prepared to get wet. FREE! Parking passes available for those without Southampton Town parking permit. All ages welcome. Rain cancels.
