As part of the Hakai Institute’s Sentinels of Change program, we monitor larval crabs, specifically Dungeness megalopae using a light trap at the PODS dock. We often catch many species of crabs as well as other invertebrates such as polychaetes, amphipods, isopods and even the occasional octopus. Please email Jenn at jenn@loonfoundation.org to sign up for the survey.

European Green Crab, or EGC, surveys are one of our more extensive surveys. From April till September we deploy crab traps any chance we get. EGCs are one of the world's worst invasive species, and they are coming our way! These surveys take two days, although help is always appreciated if you can only commit to one day. Traps are deployed at low tide from the beach and collected the next day at the same tide. All crabs, we often catch native species, are measured and sexed before being released, unless they are EGCs. We also often catch fish, snails, shrimp, and other species that are documented and released. If you like playing in the mud, this is the survey for you! Please email Jenn at jenn@loonfoundation.org if you're interested in volunteering for any of our surveys.

RESERVE A SPOT

Join us and the Sunshine Coast Conservation Association on Sunday, June 14, 2026, for the Sunshine Coast’s World Oceans Day Celebration at Mission Point Park in Davis Bay! This free, family-friendly event is the highlight of the Sunshine Coast Ocean Festival, uniting our community to honour and protect the ocean that sustains us

Rocky intertidal habitats contain some of the heartiest creatures on earth. Long-term monitoring of intertidal organisms helps track changes in biodiversity, evaluate the impacts of environmental stressors, and inform conservation strategies to maintain ecosystem health and resilience. These surveys are completed over multiple days. Transects and quadrats are used to identify, count and record organisms found. If you would like to join in the survey, please email Jenn at jenn@loonfoundation.org for more information.

Water quality surveys are one of our newer surveys that piggy backs off the Raincoast Foundation’s Anderson Creek Watershed Monitoring. We use three of Raincoast’s sites in Anderson Creek and measure multiple water quality parameters. These surveys are conducted monthly through the year. Water quality monitoring is a quick and easy survey if you have limited time! Please email Jenn at jenn@loonfoundation.org if you're interested in volunteering for any of our surveys.
