  • Thursday, July 25, 9:00 am – 12:00 noon and 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm – Coskata-Coatue Wildlife Refuge Natural History Tour

    Join The Trustees’ experienced guide on this 2.5 hour 4×4 oversand vehicle van-tour and learn about the history of the area as well as the fascinating flora and fauna that call Coskata-Coatue home. This is primarily a natural history tour of the Wildlife Refuge. While Great Point Lighthouse is located at the uppermost tip of the property, we do not guarantee access to the Lighthouse on our tours; access is entirely dependent upon the status of the protected species which return to the property seasonally to mate and fledge their young. If vehicle restrictions are in place preventing access to that part of the property, the tour will include other locations.
    This is an unforgettable Nantucket experience that you do not want to miss!  The date is Thursday, July 25 from 9 – 12 or 1 – 4, and the cost is $50 for members, $70 for nonmembers. Register at http://www.thetrustees.org/things-to-do/cape-cod-islands/event-46591.html
