Ocean Sanctuaries
To foster greater understanding, wise ecology, species protection and good stewardship of the ocean and related habitats.
Ocean Sanctuaries mission is to inspire people to take action around ocean conservation and habitat preservation. We do this by creating a community which educates and shares information through multi-media, social media, and the web. We also make data and imagery, gathered by citizen scientists, available to the general public, scientists, and like minded organizations.

Our Purpose
Ocean Sanctuaries gives all kinds of people exciting opportunities to do marine citizen science (aka community science). Our organization has three focuses: ocean citizen science, education, and outreach.
We offer online training for volunteers, to provide a solid introduction to basic data collection and scientific principals. And for our outreach, we are producing a variety of online media to help people learn more about ocean citizen science and the work we do.
Two ways you can help Ocean Sanctuaries accomplish its goals. Sign up to be one of our volunteers and participate in one or more of our projects. Or support our operations by donating on our website.
