AMSEAS Seal Walk & Beach Cleanup at Cupsogue County Park

Join AMSEAS to learn about local wildlife and the challenges they face, clean up the beach, and maybe even see some seals! Join the Atlantic Marine Conservation Society (AMSEAS) at Cupsogue Beach County Park for a guided beach cleanup. Learn about the different species of seals that inhabit the waters around Long Island, New York. View these animals in their natural habitat and learn how we can all help to conserve the marine environment. The beach walk brings you to a prime viewing spot for one of the popular haul out sites for local seals, giving you the opportunity to both help these fascinating animals and observe them from a safe distance! This event is free, with a suggested donation of $5. Feel free to bring your donation to the event, or visit our donation page. Make sure to include "Seal Walk/Beach Cleanup Donation for [Date]" in the "How did you hear about us?" section! Beach cleanup gear will be provided, but it is recommended you bring your own gloves.
