About
Our Company

Born on the tide of early summer in June 2025, Sea to Shore Explorers, LLC was created to help people rediscover their sense of wonder where the land meets the sea. We guide locals and visitors alike into the living, breathing world of the coastline—where every tidepool tells a story, and every shell holds a secret.

Through tidepool adventures, citizen science programs, and shoreline celebrations, we offer experiences that awaken curiosity and deepen connection with the marine world. Our work brings together tourists, students, teachers, and families, inviting all ages to slow down, look closer, and learn from the rhythms of the ocean.

Whether you're a traveler eager to explore new waters, a child turning over your first sea star, or a student becoming a steward of the sea, our guided programs invite you to explore with intention, joy, and reverence.

At Sea to Shore Explorers, we believe that the shore is not an edge, but a beginning—a place where discovery starts and memories are made.

  • Becca is great! Full of knowledge on all things sea creatures! I learned SO much from her. On our exploration, we saw a star fish and many, many crabs! Would definitely recommend spending sometime at the tide pools with her!

  • Exploring tide pools at Tourmaline Beach was so much fun with Becca! The group saw crabs and other amazing sea creatures. We learned interesting facts about the area and the animals that live there. Becca is extremely knowledgeable and is a wonderful guide. I highly recommend going on a tide pool adventure with her!
