June 29

Camp WET travelled to the Bathtub Reef in Martin County today to explore the habitat created by marine worms known as Phragmatapoma caudata.
Campers donned masks and got into the cracks and crevices of the reef to discover the creatures that call it home.
We learned that even a small patch of algae supports life, as seen by the tiny crab hiding in the seaweed below.

Hermit crabs are always a hit...
and this sea hare really earned itself many oooohs and aaaaahs.
