The Salish Sea is one of the largest inland seas in the world. Discover the wonders of this uniquely biodiverse, yet fragile, ecosystem with the guidance of scientists, naturalists, and environmentalists.
This annual 4-week program is designed to foster a deep connection to the Salish Sea that, for many of us, is our home. The 2026 program saw our largest attendance yet; over 400 people from both parts of this bi-national ecosystem—and beyond—joined in!
