Kids Cove

“I SPY” Scavenger Hunt

Located on Sandy Hook, the NJ Sea Grant Consortium conducts marine science research and education. Little skippers can participate in a nautical version of “I Spy Scavenger Hunt” at the show and those skippers that successfully complete their watch can visit the NJSGC exhibit for a take home marine science craft.
