About On certain spring nights, hundreds of small, silvery fish called grunion ride the waves onto some Southern California beaches to spawn. This unusual mating ritual is a must-see! Join Dr. Karen Martin, Executive Director of the Grunion Greeters and Birch Aquarium Instructors as they guide you through an unforgettable night of activities. Learn more than you imagined about grunion and experience the excitement of watching grunion hatch right before your eyes! Prepare for cool, wet conditions and bring a flashlight.
