Great Bay EcoCruise

Join us for an educational and interactive Great Bay EcoCruise from New Castle, NH, up the Piscataqua River, and into the Great Bay Estuary.

Our EcoCruises are hands-on and teach participants all about marine and estuarine ecosystems, with opportunities to use equipment and observe techniques for marine science research. There is also plenty of time on-board to just enjoy the fresh air, sights, and sounds of the estuary!

Cruise aboard a 50-foot research vessel, R/V Gulf Challenger, under the guidance of the enthusiastic and knowledgeable UNH Marine Docents, a NH Sea Grant Extension specialist, and the crew of the vessel. Time aboard the boat is approximately 5 hours including about a half-hour visit to UNH's Jackson Estuarine Laboratory.

Open to the public and great for visitors who want to learn more about the Seacoast.

Cost: $60 for adults (ages 18+), and $40 for youth (ages 10-17; must be accompanied by an adult). Not recommended for children under age 10.
