Here's what the students had to say today about the learning experiences at Bamfield.
"
It's really important because it's hands on. You don't have to remember things, you just feel them and that has more longevity".

| Oceanography in Grappler Inlet today |
"When I went on the Alta it was an ah-ha moment. I can't believe I'm here and how much learning about the oceans I'm getting from all the experiences."

| Examining the dredge on the Alta |

| Student designed experiments |
"I don't think Bamfield is just for learning about the ocean, it is here to interest you in the future and what we can do in our daily lives to help the world around us."

| Conducting experiments to better understand the impact of climate change on oceans |
And what the students had to say about why the instructors at Bamfield are providing such a great experience:
"
Because they have a lot of knowledge"
"Because they include themselves and all of us in conversations we're having"
"They have a passion for the area and the subjects"
