It’s a Hard Dock Life at Maritime Gloucester

Maritime Gloucester invites participants to pull up dock lines on the pier and see what marine creatures we can find! Using magnifying glasses, microscopes, and identification cards, we’ll discover as many marine invasive critters as we can. After investigating the dock, we encourage families to explore the Maritime Gloucester Campus, including the Seapocket Aquarium, the Marine Science & Education Center, and Gorton’s Seafood Gallery of Maritime Heritage in Gloucester, all free of charge.

Please prepare to be outside on the pier and dock for this event (comfortable clothing and sturdy shoes). We’ll provide life jackets, which will be required for participants under 12 while navigating our dock. We will have some on site, but attendees are welcome to bring their own!
