Education

Mangrove learning visit

Learn in a restored mangrove forest: from eroded aquaculture ponds to the wildlife that has come back.

This visit shows how aquaculture ponds lost to erosion are turning back into mangrove forest. Participants hear the restoration story from the people who planted it, see the nursery, and walk into the forest along the mangrove boardwalk.

It suits school students, university students, families and community groups who want to see a coastal ecosystem up close.

What you will do

  • Hear the story of erosion and restoration from the team
  • Learn the main mangrove species and how to tell them apart
  • See the nursery, including the rare Bruguiera hainesii
  • Look for signs of wildlife: crabs, snails and birds
