About This Activity
Coral reefs around the world are in danger! Threats caused by climate change, pollution and other human impacts are having a big impact on coral reef populations. Thankfully labs like Mote are on the case, discovering new innovative ways to grow, care for and outplant new coral to help restore the Florida Reef Tract. Through interactive presentations, hands-on activities, and engaging discussions, campers will learn about the different types of coral, marine life, and the unique structures that make up these underwater wonders and gain hands-on experience using science tools and practicing restoration techniques. This camp is for rising 4th - 8th graders and is hosted at Mote's International Center for Coral Reef Research & Restoration in Summerland Key, Florida. PLEASE NOTE: This program takes place at our laboratory location in the LOWER FLORIDA KEYS (NOT in Sarasota). Refunds will NOT be issued if registered for the wrong location.
