ALO’s Critter Round-Ups are free, fun, and family-friendly events held along the shores of Barnegat Bay. Participants join our trained staff and interns to explore the bay’s incredible biodiversity by pulling a seine net through the shallows to discover fish, crabs, shrimp, and more. It's an exciting way to learn about marine ecosystems while fostering a love for the ocean. We handle all creatures gently and release them back into the bay after observation.

These events run every Tuesday and Thursday starting in late June.
