Notes regarding time
Full schedule of activities from 6:30am until 4pmDescription
BioBlitz is our annual dawn-to-dusk biological survey of Odiorne Point State Park. Families and nature enthusiasts team up with SSC naturalists and guest experts to explore the Park’s habitats to find and identify as many different species as possible in just one day! BioBlitz is a great way to get kids (and adults!) excited about science, learn about biodiversity, and discover how you can help protect our natural world. Like an extreme nature scavenger hunt, BioBlitz offers many opportunities for all ages to gain knowledge and hone skills in their favorite areas of nature! Habitat, plant, and animal explorations are scheduled throughout the day, allowing participants to choose among activities that interest them the most. With seven distinct natural habitats to survey, there’s something for everyone! Cost varies, starting at $17 for non-member adults.

More Info
In 2023, we found a total of 426 species, 34 of which were new to our list! That brings the total number of species identified since our first BioBlitz in 2003 to 2,388. This valuable catalog serves as a snapshot of the biodiversity of our region. Your participation and contributions to our data set will not only help us monitor biodiversity, but will also help us provide countless educational opportunities for school children, families, and groups.
