Beach Monitoring is one of Harbor WildWatch's signature Community Science Programs where twice a year (summer & winter), we collect data from different beaches throughout the South Sound area. This information helps us determine how the beaches change over time and could be useful in determining the impact of a future natural or human induced event.
We meet in the parking area of the beach at the scheduled time to organize gear before heading out to our monitoring site. See below for more detailed directions about the monitoring location. Participation with these special community science events gets you, your friends, and family directly involved with the protection of our local beaches and who knows, may even inspire future ecologists. Mark your calendar for any or all of these upcoming events. Remember, you don't have to have a science background to participate, nor are you required to stay for the entire duration of the typically 3-4 hour program. All ages welcome.
Sunrise Beach: Sunrise beach is a turnoff to the left from Moller Drive NW. We will meet in the parking area before heading to the beach at the scheduled start time. If you arrive later, there is a short hike down the grassy hill to the beach. The monitoring site is near the beach entrance, you can't miss us!
