Adventure with a marine biology educator along the coast and learn more about wildlife living in the intertidal zone of San Diego. Great for all ages and skill levels. There are some stairs and lots of uneven terrain we will walk on, so this is not a wheelchair-friendly activity.

With fifteen years of teaching youth and adults in outdoor education settings, plus my background in conservation biology, provides guests with in-depth (pun intended) knowledge of marine life during our tide pool exploration.

As your guide—part naturalist, part amateur photographer—I’ll lead you through hidden terrain few have ever explored. We’ll journey through a narrow slot canyon, using our hands to navigate steep, rugged passages. Short sections may involve ropes and light scrambling, adding to the sense of adventure. Along the way, we’ll encounter striking sandstone formations, wind-carved caves, and breathtaking overlooks. The terrain can be demanding at times, but the reward is immense—panoramic views and a connection to the land that lingers long after the journey ends.
