Housed in two of the town's original structures, the Smith Island program in Tylerton allows participants to experience a traditional waterman's village while learning to appreciate a culture where people depend completely on a healthy Bay. The community's history and simplicity make it truly magical. For more information please visit the website.

While visiting Tylerton feel free to stop by the Smith Island Education Center. Since our participants are largely school aged children we ask that you do not enter the facility if there are participants present.
