Basic Information

Join the Green Crab Info Night: Peninsula Streams Society & Bottom Dwellers

The invasive European green crab is one of the most significant threats to our coastal ecosystems, outcompeting native species and destroying vital eelgrass habitats. Before you join us for our upcoming event, it is important to understand exactly what is a European green crab and why their removal is critical for the health of BC’s waters.

Peninsula Streams Society and Bottom Dwellers Freediving invite you to an informative evening at Whistle Buoy Brewing Co. to discuss local conservation efforts and our new snorkeling removal program.
