Conditions are shaping up to make it possible to survey Half Moon Bay this weekend! We’ve opened sign-ups, so if you’re a Reef Check Diver in California, join us to gather data at this little-visited area. ⁠
⁠
These are unique survey sites with relatively rare weather windows, which allow us to complete this work. It’s always rewarding to get out there and get the job done.⁠
⁠
Sign up at your volunteer portal! Not a Reef Check diver yet? Check out our prerequisites and get prepared for training next year!⁠

A total of 9,209 crown-of-thorns starfish have been removed from the waters off Semporna and Kunak so far this year thanks to community involvement. Although it was mostly a local effort within Malaysia, one volunteer joined from China, proving that caring for the ocean isn’t restricted by borders. ⁠
⁠
Because crown-of-thorns starfish devastate coral, these eradication efforts will protect the reefs, marine biodiversity, fisheries, and the region’s tourism industry.⁠
