Through a partnership with the World Fisheries Trust and other local non-governmental organizations, the Gorge Waterway Nature House provides a unique opportunity for the public to learn about aquatic ecosystems in their own backyard. During the summer months, visitors can observe and interact with live aquatic animals and learn about the complex relationships involving aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems in Esquimalt Gorge Park. Opportunities for student and community groups to visit are encouraged. Volunteers are always welcome during the summer months, and more details about volunteering are provided on their website.
