June 8 is World Ocean Day! Recently, world leaders made a global commitment to protect 30% of our blue planet by 2030 also known as “30x30”. To create a healthy ocean with abundant wildlife and to stabilize the climate, it’s critical that 30% of our planet’s lands, waters, and ocean are protected. Join us at Oregon Coast Aquarium to celebrate our ocean!

We’ll be sharing about our Rocky Habitat and Marine Reserve efforts and how protecting our nearshore waters is a critical piece of conserving the ocean’s biodiversity. The aquarium will be hosting family friendly activities throughout the day, so click below to learn more!
