Not-So-Scary Estuary at San Elijo Lagoon

Meet creepy, crawly, and hooting animals this Halloween at San Elijo Lagoon. Costumes are encouraged! Kids can create lollipop spiders and animal facemasks, feel animal pelts, and make animal tracks in the sand. Go trick-or-treating along the “Haunted Hike” nature trail, where clues help families look and listen for resident wildlife.

You’ll learn about nocturnal creatures and their wanderings through live animal presentations at 2 p.m. each day. Not-So-Scary Estuary is part of the FREE, seasonal Family Discovery Days program. Ideal for ages 2-12.

Family Discovery Days is presented by San Elijo Lagoon Conservancy & San Diego Parks & Recreation. Made possible with funding by City of Encinitas and Mizel Family Foundation Community Grant.
