Pier Peer

Come discover the mysterious animals that live below the pier at Boston Harbor Marina at night. Underwater lights attract spectacular estuary creatures for you to safely scoop up and observe, while our volunteer naturalists help you identify and learn more about what you’ve found.

Preregistration is required due to the limited capacity of the dock. Children must wear life jackets during this event and be accompanied by an adult. There must be at least one adult per two children to ensure supervision and safety. This event involves some contact with deep water and is not recommended for children under 6 years old. There are some life jackets available at the marina, but please bring your own if you can. We highly recommend that each participant bring their own flashlight! Please wear non-slip shoes and dress for the weather. All participants must sign a liability waiver that will be provided at the event.
