When the weather in the Puget Sound starts to warm up and the tides go w-a-a-a-a-a-y out, the Seattle Aquarium Beach Naturalists start to appear on local beaches!
On selected Tillicum Village trips in June and July, beach naturalists from the Seattle Aquarium will be available on the beaches closest the Blake Island marina to answer questions about the Puget Sound marine life at your feet.
