This program is important to study the estuary for seahorses and other fishes and the ocean diving for reef health and shark and manta sightings to use for papers and knowledge passed along to other marine conservation groups. We were too early for the whale sharks and the mantas were just starting to come, so people should know the whale sharks and humpbacks come out more at the end of June. But there are plenty of amazing ocean creatures and estuary surveys on the seahorses to keep you busy!
