Introduction to Marine Mammal Identification Ever wondered what type of animal you just saw out in the ocean, or washed up on the beach? Was it a seal, a whale, a dolphin, a great white shark? Situated twenty miles out in the Atlantic Ocean, Cape Cod is quite possibly the best land-based whale watching region in the world. Spring offers the best opportunity for viewing the largest diversity of marine mammal species which visit annually. This class will help you identify whales, seals, sharks, and other marine creatures you may spot from the shores of Cape Cod, and when and where to spot these animals. The program will involve three field walks led by trained naturalists/scientists from the Provincetown Center for Coastal Studies. Contact Nauset Community Education for fees, location, and policy information, 508-255-4300.
