PORTS Programs
Sign-up for the "Stewards of the Lagoon at Chah-pekw O'-Ket'-toh (Stone Lagoon)" PORTS program. This program is led by Indigenous voices and grounded in cultural respect. Through" exhibits, stories, and cultural knowledge, you are invited to learn how Yurok People have always lived with this land—through the materials we use, the ways we create, and the teachings we carry forward today. This program is for 3rd grade and above.
In-Person Guided Tours
We invite you to join us for a guided tour of the Chah-pekw O’ Ket’-toh “Stone Lagoon” Visitor Center-the first tribally operated visitor center in the California State Parks system! Students will learn about the cultural significance of the lagoon and how its natural resources have supported Yurok people since time immemorial. Field trips are offered Wednesdays and Thursdays. To book a trip, please submit a Humboldt Lagoons Field Trip Reservation Request.
