Programs fees are non-refundable. In the event you need to reschedule your program, please call (609) 266-0538 two weeks in advance.  We are sorry but we cannot reschedule a program less than two weeks in advance.

In the event programs are cancelled due to severe weather, an MMSC staff member will contact you and either reschedule your program or issue a refund. 

Children must be at least 5 years old to participate in programs. 

MMSC does not facilitate "drop off" summer programs for children. Parents or guardians are expected to supervise their children at all times, both in and out of the water. This is a hands-on program and parents or guardians are expected to be in the water along side their children at all times.

A confirmation letter will be emailed within five days of booking your program with your specific program location on the beach in Brigantine. Very important- please make sure to enter your preferred email address in the web form if different from the email used to book your program! Otherwise your letter will be sent to the email address used during the booking and payment process.  

Please meet the MMSC Educators at the location specified in your confirmation letter five minutes prior to your designated program start time to fill out your waivers.

Please be courteous and don't approach the previous program group while they are finishing up with their experience. We want every family to have an enjoyable private experience that is all their own.

Equipment is sanitized between each program.

The MMSC Sea Life Museum and gift shop is open 10am-2pm Tuesday- Sunday through the summer. Be sure to leave time in your day to visit before or after your program! 

To ensure a safe and comfortable experience, please bring sunscreen, insect repellent, sunglasses, hats, towels, change of shoes and plenty of water.   

Foot coverings are  required at all times during the program including in the water. Water shoes or SCUBA booties are best to protect your feet, flip flops are discouraged as they are prone to ripping off and being carried away by the waves. 

During this program, guests will be standing in water no deeper than mid-calf level. If you feel more comfortable with your child wearing a life jacket or swim floaties, please make sure to bring your own as we do not provide them.

Participants are responsible for having their own beach tags for every member of their group.  MMSC cannot predict when tag checkers will be out. For questions about purchasing beach tags and which beaches will have badge checkers on your program date, please visit the Brigantine Beach Tags page:
