Paradise Cay Publications Marine Wildlife of the Pacific Northwest – 52 Card Deck

Discover Pacific Northwest Marine Wildlife Through a Deck of Cards

Experience the sea's beauty through a full 52-card deck where each card features a unique marine species from North America's Pacific coast. The artwork blends naturalist insight with vibrant color, turning each shuffle into a tiny voyage along the shoreline, from sunlit tide pools to the mysterious depths.

Created by Slade Delastrode, an author, illustrator, and naturalist, the deck pairs science-inspired detail with striking artistry. The full-color drawings invite closer inspection, capturing textures, colors, and movement — the glint of scales, the curl of a fin, the sheen of a shell — in ways that are as appealing on the table as they are informative on the backstory cards.

Educational & entertaining, every card includes concise facts about the featured species. Read a card aloud during a game, or spend a quiet moment studying the illustration and comparing it to real-world coastal habitats. The mix of play and learning makes it suitable for families, classrooms, or solo hours of curiosity.
