Thank you for your interest in MPA Watch!

Our program is not possible without the commitment of our dedicated volunteers. MPA Watch programs across the state of California are continually training a network of volunteers to monitor resource use inside and outside Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). Volunteers are trained to identify onshore and offshore ocean activities and collect data on coastal and marine resource use.

Marin MPA Watch currently has a student internship program in place for middle school, high school and college students.
