Welcome to the Marine Science Institute's LinkedIn page! Since our establishment in 1970, the Marine Science Institute has been at the forefront of environmental education in the San Francisco Bay Area. Our mission is rooted in the belief that hands-on experience in the local marine environment fosters curiosity, deepens scientific understanding, & instills a sense of responsibility for environmental stewardship among students of all ages.
In response to the growing concern over water resources in the Bay Area, the Institute was founded on the pioneering idea of connecting students directly with their natural surroundings. Prior to our inception, there was a noticeable gap between environmental awareness and educational opportunities in the region. We sought to bridge this divide by offering immersive programs that allow students to explore & interact with the diverse flora and fauna of San Francisco Bay.
Our flagship program, the Discovery Voyage, launched in our early years, quickly gaining recognition for its effectiveness in engaging students. Over the years, we have expanded our offerings to include a variety of land-based programs such as the Shoreside program, the Inland Voyage, & the Tidepool program at Pillar Point in Half Moon Bay. From our modest beginnings serving 4,000 students annually, we have grown to impact over 50,000 students & adults each year across all our programs combined.
At the Marine Science Institute, we take pride in delivering high-quality educational experiences led by expert instructors. Our commitment to excellence has earned us recognition as a Great Nonprofits "Top-rated Nonprofit" for multiple years running. None of this would be possible without the generous support of individuals, businesses, and foundations who share our vision & contribute to ensuring that our programs remain accessible to all.
Join us in our mission to inspire the next generation of environmental stewards and explore the wonders of the San Francisco Bay.
