Get Your Feet Wet is the flagship program of Harbor WildWatch. It all began about 3 years ago when our founder set up a small activity station at Jerisch Dock with the blessing of the city of Gig Harbor. The response from residents and visitors was so overwhelmingly positive, we decided we should offer our interactive beach program on a regular, published schedule.

Come to the beach!

We now schedule interpretive programs on our local beaches on most low tide days during the spring and summer. You will be able to locate us by looking for the blue canopy on the beach, and our volunteers and naturalists dressed in blue shirts and hats. We collect live specimens (by permit), place them in wet touch tanks, set up a resource table, and welcome curious visitors of all ages.  

We look forward to meeting you!

Check our calendar to see when you and your family will be able to visit us on the beach. Perhaps you will catch a beach walk led by a trained marine naturalist, discover new life forms you have never seen before, and learn how our behaviors impact these fragile critters. Please come to the beach, and “Get Your Feet Wet”

Learn. Have Fun.
