TidePools Aquarium Release Day

With Tidepools Aquarium

🐟 It’s release day at Armours Beach! Join Tidepools Aquarium on Saturday, May 10 at 12:30 PM in Gibsons, for a heartwarming annual tradition — returning 450 sea creatures to their natural ocean home!

This lively, family-friendly event offers a hands-on way to connect with marine life and the natural rhythms of the Salish Sea. Bring your friends, family, buckets, and life jackets, and take part in gently releasing sea stars, crabs, and other small marine animals back into the tide.

It’s a beautiful celebration of stewardship and respect for the creatures who teach and inspire us throughout the year. Arrive early — the animals go quickly!
