Halloween-Themed Family Discovery Days are Oct. 19 and 20 from 1 to 4 p.m.

The following is by the San Elijo Lagoon Nature Center

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 wildlife.

You’ll learn about nocturnal creatures and their wanderings through live animal presentations at 2 pm daily. Not-So-Scary Estuary is part of the FREE, seasonal Family Discovery Days program.
