Other ways to get involved

Visit Potential Marine Reserve Sites on July 25
Come and tour some of the spectacular areas that are under consideration for marine reserves. Spend a long summer day with like-minded friends! Both trips will feature talks on marine reserves by experts who can answer any of your questions. Join us on either of these trips - at no charge! Lunch and snacks will be provided.
