Shannon Point Marine Center

The field trip to Shannon Point was very interesting and fun! The drive up to the center was neat and the surrounding area had a gorgeous view of all the islands. All of the different equipment they had for their diving and research was mind blowing, even that 10+ thousand dollar machine they used to mimic ocean levels was astonishing!



My favorite part was when we all looked at microscopic organisms through the microscopes, some guy got the little dudes from a nearby port. It was very interesting looking at all the tiny organisms and to watch how they all moved and squirmed around. Most of them were transparent so I could see their insides which was incredible! I'm pretty sure I saw intestines.
