Into the Intertidal Location: Regatta Point Walkway, along the Northwest Arm We're willing to bet that the Halifax shore is home to more species of animals, plants, and algae than you thought! This program explores the themes of habitat and adaptations to intertidal living. Join us along the Regatta Point Walkway on the Northwest Arm of Halifax for this program. This program is transit-friendly. Coastal Discoveries ROCK Location: MacCormacks Beach Provincial Park, Eastern Passage (in Fisherman's Cove) Take a dive into the geology of coastal Nova Scotia! We'll explore both the neat animals and rock formations on this trek. Get ready to get hands-on and discover what makes rocks in Halifax different from rocks at Peggy’s Cove, how they came to be, and how beach geology can often be a bit different from what we expect! This program is transit-friendly (however travel from Halifax can be lengthy). Sea to Sky Location: Hartlen Point, Eastern Passage (in Fisherman's Cove) Ever wonder what type of gull stole your french fry at the beach? Connect the birds above with the ocean critters below in this trek that explores the amazing diversity of seabirds living along the intertidal. Join us at Hartlen Point in Eastern Passage for this special Tidal Trek!
