It makes a world of difference to experience these ecosystems first hand and realize that it's not just a fight for them but a fight for m..." Read more

"MARINE LAB is a very special place for students to work with passionate teachers of marine biology and to see what being a marine scientist is like, indeed, to try on the hat of a marine biologist. I've brought students MANY times and my students ALWAYS love it so much! Many have even said that it was the best educational experience of their young life!"

"I attended MarineLab in 2015 as a camp counselor with my group of campers. The experience was so impactful I ended up applying to work for them in 2017 and stayed on the team for 4 years. I have worked at multiple education non-profits over the years and MarineLab is by far the best of them all. The standard of teaching and inimitable field trip experiences..." Read more

"I did this both as a student on a field trip (in 2004) and as an adult in their teacher workshop, and highly recommend both experiences! The overall experience value just can't be beat, that's why it's stayed on my mind for 20 years. The food is great, the lodging is fine- not everyone is a fan of the bunkbeds but I think it's just dandy. But most importantl..." Read more
