Bayplay Marine Education Program
The Bayplay Marine Education Program focuses on educating students on the bay, the marine life and the history of the area using reference material, maps and instructor/guide knowledge, plus our own in house Marine Education Handbook. The Diving, Snorkeling and Sea Kayaking experience is about empowering students with knowledge about the conditions and natural environment in which they are going to experience. Students are shown images through a series of presentations of the unique underwater flora and fauna to then associate the images with the creatures when diving, snorkeling or kayaking.
Activity Goals
During the course of the activities, we seek to achieve the following outcomes:
•   To learn about the plants and animals within different ecosystems
•   To understand the components and factors that affect how ecosystems function
•   To learn about the ways humans affect the surrounding environment
•   To become informed and involved members of the community
•   To engage in positive learning and social experience beyond the classroom
•   To have fun!
Programs can be tailor made and include snorkel skills & tours, sea kayak skills & tours, scuba skills, tours and dive courses, a range of initiative games, rock pool rambles and tailor made programs. Overnight options are available with lodge or camping accommodation.
