Kids & Family

Through educational interactive displays and exciting hands-on activities, visitors of all ages can learn about the estuary, bay, and watershed at the Nature Centre. They also run weekly summer science programmes, will hold films and special events again, and rent out their facilities. Seals, otters, bald eagles, starfish, and other wildlife make their homes in the estuary. The centre is just a 10-minute drive from downtown Duncan.
