FAU Harbor Branch Boat Tours returning May 26

FAU Harbor Branch public boat tours are back and excited to invite explorers of all ages to join us for a fun and educational 1.5-hour excursion on the Indian River Lagoon! During this experience, an expert guide will discuss the wildlife encountered as well as the research that the Institute conducts to better understand and protect this important ecosystem. Participants will have the unique opportunity to experience the lagoon like never before — as a marine scientist aboard a floating laboratory with state-of-the-art-tools. Activities include interpreting real-time water quality data from the Indian River Lagoon Observatory Network, surveying underwater habitats with a Remotely Operated Vehicle, and identifying wildlife of all sizes, from microscopic plankton to sharks, rays, manatees, and dolphins. Tours run every Friday and Saturday, more information can be found at www.fau.edu/hboi/bookatour or by calling 772-242-2293.
