Science in the Harbor Tour
Science in the Harbor Tours are offered Monday and Friday mornings from 10:30am to 12pm, beginning July 3rd and ending August 28th.
Center for Coastal Studies scientists and educators will tell the story of Provincetown Harbor through the lens of the scientific research they conduct. Passengers will learn about the natural history of the harbor, from birds and seals to sharks and whales. We will examine the vast microscopic world of plankton that feeds the harbor’s rich ecosystem.
Center for Coastal Studies guides will also examine the harbor’s history, both above and below the water’s surface. Using sonar imagery, they will guide visitors over the harbor’s submerged wrecks and explain the stories behind Provincetown’s historic lighthouses and landmarks.
