Sea Turtle Nesting Surveys
Beach Enhancement and Restoration
Safe Hatch Initiative
This program costs around $15,000, which covers the cost of survey supplies, nesting materials, fuel and maintenance for the UTV, and research efforts.
Over the past 6 years, MORAES has worked hard to remove invasive vegetation and plant native vegetation on Darwin Beach. Darwin Beach is now complete with an educational trail and we will continue expanding this project down the beach.
With the use of specialized predator exclusion cages, MORAES has been able to decrease sea turtle nest predation events from over 50% in 2025 to 16% in 2026. Our goal is to implement more cages in 2027
Education, Outreach, Internship Stipends and Scholarships
As a local non-profit, we strive to reach the South Florida community and inspire marine scientists. Your donations will go towards outreach events, stipends for interns, and enhancement of educational tools.
