Description

Beach seining involves dragging a large seine net with two poles on each end through the water to catch various marine species. We provide chest waders for all the participants to keep dry while assisting our rangers with dragging the seine net. The participants will have the opportunity to have hands-on interaction with the animals caught including different types of crabs, killifish, Atlantic silverside, pipefish, shrimp and more! Don’t forget to wear good sand walking shoes and bug repellent. Free, call (732) 872-5970 to make reservations.
