The Darling Marine Center has two flowing seawater laboratories with resident and visitor lab spaces. We have a fleet of coastal research vessels, a variety of oceanographic sampling gear, a scientific diving program, and a marine library. Housing, meal service, classrooms, and meeting space are available for researchers or for scientific and educational conferences.

Campus trails
The Darling Marine Center trail network covers over four miles of terrain, through forests and fields, and along the river’s edge. The trail network was developed by longtime volunteer and friend of the DMC, Elsie Morse.
When you arrive on campus, please check in using the Google Form, or in person in the lobby of the Horse Barn Administration Building (second building on your left as you enter upper campus).
Printed trail maps and safety protocols are available in the lobby, as well as trail maps.
