Ocean loving volunteers needed! (San Luis Obsipo area)

Save to Favorites

Do you love walking along the coast? Would you like to be a part of making our oceans healthier? We’re seeking volunteers for MPA Watch, a citizen science program in support of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) on the Central Coast. MPAs are similar to underwater parks in that they protect some of the most unique and richest coastal ecosystems the state has to offer. MPA Watch volunteers monitor human activity in and around MPAs to determine whether MPAs are being used as intended.

By walking along the coast in Montana de Oro, Point Buchon and Cambria, volunteers can combine their love of the ocean while collecting valuable scientific data. Volunteers should have reliable transportation and be over 18 years of age.

For more information about the program and how you can become a steward of your local MPA, visit our sign up sheet here: https://app.etapestry.com/hosted/TheOtterProject/VolunteerForm.html
