Upcoming Events
NEST Excavation for Sea Turtles (NEST) Program
​
NEST is a new, limited-edition program available during the summer in partnership with the Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science (Frost Science).
Participants will learn about sea turtle conservation through a hands-on activity, nature walk on Virginia Key Beach and observing a nest excavation, an opportunity to look inside a sea turtle nest after it hatches.
​
Nest excavations take place three days after a sea turtle nest hatches and can only be completed by a person authorized by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission. The Frost Science Education Team will talk guests through the process and purpose of a nest excavation while we excavate the nest (under permit #153).

Darwin Beach Enhancement Event
July 20, 9am-11am
4600 Rickenbacker Cswy, Key Biscayne, FL 33149
​
MORAES would like to invite you to help us on Darwin Beach! We've made great progress returning the beach to a natural coastline ecosystem here in South Florida and we're nearing the finish line! For this event we'll be focused on planting native species, cleaning up any trash or debris we find on the beach, and continuing to create an educational trail. For this event, we will be partnering with Miami Waterkeeper! We'd love to have all the help we can get!
​
A special thank you to our project sponsors: Athletic Brewing Company and Surfing's Evolution & Preservation Foundation. Without their support, we simply would not be able to do this project.
