What We Do
ReefKeeper educates about the marine environment through classroom visits and field trips to the Cayes (islands), teacher training, and internship programs to promote conservation and protection of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef and coastal habitats near South Water Caye Marine Reserve in Belize. We educate Belizean students about the importance of the reef, mangroves, and seagrass to promote conservation and actions that directly help the marine environment.
