King Tides Science and Celebration

Join us at the beach to witness the King Tides. As a community, we will observe and capture photos for the California Coastal Commission.

We will gather at 8:15 am by Heal the Bay’s aquarium to prepare to fan out across the beach. The main focus will be to capture great photos of the ocean’s tide at its peak. This will help scientific research on sea-level rise and its effect on our local beaches and infrastructure. When we are finished, we will head over to Heal the Bay’s aquarium for educational demonstrations. We will learn about the planetary forces that cause the King Tides to occur. We will have a community-based discussion about the effects of climate on our oceans. Light snacks and coffee will be provided to the community.

This is a collaboration with the California Coastal Commission, which is gathering King Tides photos along the California coast for their research. This is a joint project between Heal the Bay and Climate Action Santa Monica. Everyone is invited to join!

Please remember to exercise caution whenever you are by the water. Tides will be extra high on this day.
