Using Park Resources

to Teach, Inspire

and Motivate Students

 

Last year thousands of students visited our Coast Miwok roundhouse, toured the historic Point Reyes lighthouse, and watched elephant seals, migratory gray whales, and creek critters in their natural habitats. For the 2011-2012 school year, we are accepting email reservation requests beginning Monday, August 1, 2011. Do not submit a reservation form at this point. Instead read the instructions on the "Plan a Field Trip" page and wait to submit email until the August 1st date. If you have any questions, please contact Mary Beth Shenton at 415-464-5139 or by email to discuss availability. Check out our full list of ranger-led education programs. Use our Directions page to navigate to Point Reyes.




If you want to bring a group out for a self-guided experience, please call the park as soon as you know the date of your visit @ 415-464-5139. Groups will be limited depending on site carrying capacity and previous reservations.
