Younger guests can take part in such diverse daily programs as research expeditions, nature-themed yoga classes, beach walks, scavenger hunts and turtle nesting site conservation. Aimed at informing youngsters about the indigenous animals and plants, the classes were co-created by teachers from the American Museum of Natural History's Science and Nature Department.

Adults can start the day with a guided Eco Hike to learn more about Provo's geology, its dry tropic forest and the medicinal uses of native plants. Diving and snorkeling are the typical ways visitors learn about Provo's marine biology, which you can do with the Nature Discovery Center, but you can also stay mostly dry but doing your learning through a kayak tour.
