Inside Marine Sanctuaries: Where Science Meets the Sea
from SeaKeepers: Voyages of DISCOVERY · host The International SeaKeepers Society
Welcome back to SeaKeepers: Voyages of DISCOVERY! We're kicking off Season 2 with a deep dive into the power of marine protected areas (MPAs) in ocean conservation. Our guests, TJ Tate and Cortney Benson from the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation (NMSF), share how sanctuaries protect biodiversity, preserve cultural heritage, and support resilient coastal communities. We also spotlight a collaborative expedition in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary, where SeaKeepers, NMSF, and Sail & Explore teamed up to study microplastic pollution. Plus, hear how TJ and Katie are bringing ocean advocacy to Capitol Hill Ocean Wave (CHOW) in Washington, D.C. – the nation’s leading ocean policy event. Follow us on Instagram @SEAKEEPERS for exclusive coverage and live updates from CHOW! Whether you're a returning listener or new to the voyage, this season opener sets the tone for a season full of insight, collaboration, and impact.
