Beach Wrack Walk with Sue Magoo
Thursday, October 8 • 4:00pm - 5:30pm
Virgin Creek Beach • 1291 Shoreline Highway (Hwy 1), Fort Bragg
You can learn a lot about the ocean by studying what washes up on shore! All that stuff is collectively called Beach Wrack and once you know what to look for, the beach becomes a treasure trove of fascination.
Join us and the beloved Sue Magoo for a kid-friendly but everyone is welcome scavenger hunt as Sue teaches us the science and art of beach wrack interpretation. It changes with the season, the weather, the currents, and more. Let the beach surprise you!
