"My family and I had the most wonderful experience learning and exploring with Carol. Her enthusiasm to share knowledge and to explore the natural world was infectious. During the planning of our trip she was a wonderful communicator and was very flexible and accommodating. Even her water shoes are extremely high quality!"
"We absolutely loved our morning with Carol. She is very knowledgeable about ocean life and you can tell she is passionate about educating others. Myself, mom, and son were completely engaged for the 2.5 hours we spent with her and we all learned so much. This is a must do experience if you’re in the area."
"As a recent transplant to Maine from a landlocked state, I heard about this tour and thought it sounded like a fun way to learn about my new environment. 12/10 would recommend an encounter with Carol to anyone interested in exploring the coast! She was very educational, but she was also personable and funny. She does a great job of making sure folks are safe (handling critters and navigating the seaweed/rocks, etc.), and she also has a way of encouraging participants to be as hands-on as possible without pushing them past their comfort zone. She was also very easy to communicate with RE: weather and timing on the front end. Truly, cannot more highly recommend Carol."
"Carol provided our party of 8 with an awesome tour of the tidal pools. She provided water shoes and taught us how to safely navigate the pools. We found all sorts of cool sea creatures and the kids (ages 7-11) had a great time."
"Carol took my son and I out for a tidepooling adventure this morning. The experience was nothing short of amazing - Carol was so patient with helping the kids learn how to safely navigate the rocks/seaweed, and in explaining how to gently handle the various critters we encountered. I even came away from it learning so much even though I'd done outdoor adventures in Maine as a kid myself. Thank you Carol for an awesome adventure this morning!"
