Sailing the Sargasso Sea

from Meet the Ocean Hosted by Paul North

Upon the tall ships of the Sea Education Association (S.E.A.), students learn to become sail savvy deckhands, while taking part in hands-on ocean science research. Join Dr. Jeff Schell on a windblown journey into the Sargasso Sea, where floating kelp islands provide habitat for a drifting ecosystem. Learn what Columbus thought on his first encounter, and what it means to be part of a shipboard community when no land is in sight. Stand watch, navigate by the stars, and discover the oddities and intricacies of kelp! Meet the Ocean is a listener-supported 501c3 nonprofit. Help us continue to create by donating on our website.
