SCIENCE AND NATURE
Live Exploration: Gray’s Reef National Marine Sanctuary
This unique experience teaches students about the animals that call Gray’s Reef home in Savannah, Georgia. The UGA Aquarium features 16 exhibit tanks filled with a variety of coastal fish, invertebrates and reptiles, most of which are native to the Georgia coast. We learn how the seafloor serves as a habitat and ways these animals can help protect the reef from major threats.
