Become a valuable citizen scientist and help us monitor our incredible seagrass meadows! Watch as the glorious sun rises and reflects across the exposed mudflats of Yawuru Nagulagun Roebuck Bay.  Take important measurements which will help us protect our beloved seagrass, as well as the many fascinating creatures who call the seagrass home.

We will start the morning at 5:15am with snacks and refreshments, followed by a safety and training induction before commencing the survey across the mudflats.  Please ensure you bring the following:

• Sun protection: The Kimberley sun packs a punch, please ensure you wear protective clothing such as t shirt/long sleeve shirt, hat and sunscreen.
• Water bottle: save waste and bring your own bottle, we will provide water to re-fill.
• Reef Shoes: the mud flats are very sticky! We recommend you wear reef boots to protect your toes from the many intertidal creatures and potential sharp rocks/coral. We will provide boots you can borrow if you do not have your own.

Please meet Alex, our Seagrass Officer, at the location below. Contact Alex (details below) if you need help locating us or have any questions about the project.
