20th Annual Ocean Fun Days
We're celebrating 20 years of ocean discovery and environmental stewardship with fun activities, games, eco-tours and so much more!
Grab your family and get ready for a totally turtle-riffic experience — NJNG's 20th Annual Ocean Fun Days! We’ve pulled out all the stops to celebrate our milestone anniversary, along with event co-sponsors New Jersey Sea Grant Coalition, Gateway National Park/National Park Service, New Jersey Division of Parks and Forestry/Island Beach State Park, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, the Asbury Park Press and NOAA's James J. Howard Marine Sciences Lab at Sandy Hook.
At the 2023 Ocean Fun Days, guests can learn from marine scientists, researchers and environmentalists about how to preserve the Jersey Shore's natural resources so we can all continue to enjoy them for years to come. This year’s festivities include new exhibitors, hands-on environmental programs and demonstrations and even the Sandy Hook lighthouse will be open for tours.
