At H2O Adventures & More, we love guiding people of all ages to Florida’s rich fossil hunting grounds in remote locations. But when that’s not possible, we bring the fossils, fun, and hands-on experience directly to you.
The excitement on students’ faces when they uncover a piece of Florida’s prehistoric past is priceless. Imagine discovering a one-inch Hemipristis (snaggletooth shark) tooth! It’s incredible to think that fossils like these, and millions more, are hidden beneath the surface of the Peace River, which runs 106 miles through our state.
Because traveling to remote fossil sites can be a challenge for schools due to bus costs, chaperones, and travel time, we’ve created a cost-effective in-class field trip that delivers the fossil experience right to your students.
