Buffeted by Hurricanes Isidore and Lili,
the Sea Lab had to cancel its previously scheduled Open House in Fall
2002.
But we¹re back and better than ever! Discovery Day at the Dauphin
Island Sea Lab makes learning about the marine environment a family fun
activity.
Learn what it takes to become a marine scientist; make and take home
your own marine crafts; explore worlds underwater at the Estuarium.
Discover the treasures of our coast at the Dauphin Island Sea Lab!
