Thank you for visiting our web site. I am Tara Short, the Founder and Director of Green Edventures. We are a summer high school marine biology and eco-adventure company for teens and teachers. I built Green Edventures on three "E" values: Environment, Empowerment, and Education.

Our field programs are carbon neutral and directly support indigenous people and local conservation projects in Seward, Alaska and La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico. Through exciting environment-based adventure field studies, participants explore wild places by snorkeling and free-diving, kayaking, hiking, and cultural interaction. Each participant learns through experience and first-hand observation in nature's classroom.

High school students with a thirst for eco-adventure and a passion for conservation are invited to join Green Edventures for the ultimate sub-arctic experience in a very cool place.

During the week we explore a variety of habitats both on and off the water so that you can experience all aspects of the ecology here. Activities include kayaking, wildlife photograpy, glacier hiking, and exploring the tempearte rainforest. We'll even meet with native Alaskans and learn about their culture and connection to the land. Learn more about Alaska Kenai Discovery

Teens with a passion for taking the plunge into science and conservation are invited to dive in for an experience of a lifetime to explore a living laboratory of ocean systems and marine biota. The ultimate classroom is the Baja California Sur, Mexico's Sea of Cortez or also know as the Gulf of California. It is considered one of the most biologically diverse marine systems on earth with over 800 species of fish including the gentle giant whale shark which can reach a size of 60ft and 1/3 of the worlds cetaceans (whales and dolphin) come to these waters at some point during the year. Famous conservationist and explorer, Jacques Cousteau called the Sea of Cortez, "The aquarium of the world" because the rich biological wealth that can be found within its boundaries. Activities include snorkeling and free-diving, kayaking, desert exploration, and photographing underwater marine life.
