Description
Under the full moon horseshoe crabs flock into our shallow protected estuaries by the thousands to take part in a spawning ritual that stretches back 450 million years to the late Ordovician period. By the light of the moon and our headlamps, we will watch these living dinosaurs glide across the sandy shallows through their ancient ritual. It’s as close as you will ever get to experiencing the age of dinosaurs first-hand. For those who prefer to remain firmly grounded in the 21st century comforts of the Inn, we will have live crabs in tanks and a slide/video presentation in the Sea Room along with special guests.
Please note, tickets purchased for this event are non-refundable. All social distancing and safety protocols will be in place.
