Cayman Sea Elements
Sea is for Science!

 

Sea is for Science! is a series of programs designed to allow kids to appreciate and experience the interconnectedness of Cayman’s marine environments. Activities include snorkelling on the reef, exploring seagrass meadows and discovering the incredible life within the mangroves.  

Fish and Coral Reef Identification lessons include Coral Reef and Conservation, Colours & Camouflage, the Great Match-up: identifying juvenile to adult fish changes, and Cleaning Stations. Kids learn about sea creatures and local ecosystems, food webs, water pollution, plankton, how to practice marine stewardship, practice their water skills, share stories with other explorers, interact with sea creatures (when possible), complete marine education activities, and have fun!
 
After snorkelling at different sites around Grand Cayman, kids may become their parent’s marine ecology guide!
 
If your child doesn't know how to snorkel, but loves to swim, then a short lesson can be arranged and will probably be enough to get him/her ready for a Sea is for Science! program.
 
We are planning various, afternoon, day and week camps throughout the year, so please check back to this site for upcoming programs, or contact us for more information.

Sea Elements and Schools

Sea Elements would like to support educators in their task of teaching about local marine environments. We offer a variety of field trips and classroom presentations to supplement your work in the classroom.
 
We believe that interactive environmental education allows students to develop an increased concern for the environment through contact with natural environments. Active participation and contact within these ecosystems may prove to be a catalyst for shaping responsible environmental behaviour and attitudes.
