Mote Island Quest

Marine science camp on Saturdays, year-round.

Mote Island Quest is a hands-on, feet-wet exploration of Sarasota Bay. It is the perfect program for kids who are fascinated by marine biology and love searching for animals on the beach or in the water.

Kids are instantly transformed into marine scientists as they work through the scientific method while exploring two field sites with collecting equipment, classifying and identifying their catch, and adding to our student data catalog of animals living in Sarasota Bay.

Cost: $30 for members, $35 for non-members

Registration: Pre-registration is required.
