Beaches

Beaches that we visited! 

This ranges from our first day to our end.

This beach is right in front of CEDO, Center for the study of Deserts and Oceans.

Our group is walking across the beach after looking at some organisms that live in this semi-rocky area.

This area is very rocky and even has large boulders. Some of the boulders have algae which made it very slippery to walk on. However, because we took the risk of walking through this, we were able to see plenty of interesting creatures!

This area is Cholla Bay, we actual met with another Mesa Community College Professor here, as they have a house near by. This area is more of a mud flat estuary.

This is our group on the boat leaving Bird Island. The following video has Aaron, LoLo, and Paige at the front of the boat. We were looking/searching for the dolphins that someone had seen and announced.

This beach is Sandy Beach, we visited this beach with CEDO Crew to do a Census of the organism there. We helped assist CEDO to make Sandy Beach certified and protected. They do this process every couple of months to ensure a steady and precise count. It was very interesting to part take in a scientific field study! 

This was an amazing experience and interesting to see so many different types of beaches not very far from each other.
