Something we all dream about…and actually got to experience it! 🥹

🌊⭐Tide pools are living ecosystems, not touch tanks.
When exploring Oregon Coast tide pools, remember:
• Look, don’t touch
• Leave rocks, shells, plants, and animals where you find them
• Stay on sand or bare rock whenever possible
• Keep dogs leashed and away from sensitive habitats
• Give birds and marine mammals plenty of space
• Pack out your trash (and any extra you find!)

Every sea star, shell, anemone, and tide pool resident plays an important role in this delicate ecosystem. The best way to experience these incredible places is to leave them exactly as you found them for the next visitor and the wildlife that calls them home.

Looking for something new to see on the coast? Here’s a whale of an idea, head to Newport and check out the newly installed blue whale skeleton on the Hatfield campus.

🐋At 70 feet long, this awe-inspiring creature is truly breathtaking. And it’s not the only marine mammal skeleton on display at Hatfield. The Hatfield Marine Science Visitor Center features an impressive collection of large marine mammal skeletons, too. Each is lovingly restored by local volunteers.

And as a bonus, the Visitor Center begins its summer schedule and will be open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Remember, when you visit, don’t forget to look up!
