It’s Sharktober! Join Shark Conservationist and Naturalist David McGuire and other wildlife specialists celebrating sharks in a life-changing experience searching the Gulf of the Farallones for whales, wildlife and our finny friends.
Join us exiting beneath the Golden Gate on the US Coast Guard certified vessel AMIGO, for amazing photo and wildlife opportunities and crossing 28 miles across the Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary on a modern day Natural History expedition.
Join shark conservationists and experts on a unique opportunity to search for, and document sharks including: swell sharks, horn sharks, bat rays, soupfin sharks and sevengill sharks in the La Jolla Cove State Marine Reserve (and possibly Point Loma).
Sharks are also in the news since summer months bring more people in contact with waters where sharks swim. Warmer waters bring rays and juvenile sharks closer to shore, with an increased odds that humans and sharks shall meet.
In the last two months, numerous reports of dead or dying sharks in the Bay have followed a another die-off in Aquatic Park Berkeley this year. Sharks are being reported struggling in the shallows or washed up dead by concerned citizens from Redwood City, to Point Richmond, to San Francisco and outside the coast north of Bolinas in Marin County in April and May.
Join us with our partners Waterhorse charters for a shark education dive and community science data collection September 3rd.
Help us search and identify sevengill sharks as part of the Sharkwatch ID program using Shark Book with Ocean Sanctuaries.
