Gray’s Reef National Marine Sanctuary is Georgia’s underwater wonderland. This natural live-bottom reef is teeming with marine life and is part of the endangered North Atlantic right whale’s calving ground. Loggerhead turtles rest at the reef, and scientists have identified more than 200 fish species! But because of its location 19 miles off the Georgia coast, few people even know about this amazing resource, let alone get to see it up close. Here’s your chance to change that! Sarah Porter, the Chapter Director of Gray’s Reef, will bring the reef to you as she shares the secrets of this astonishing place and gives us a peek into the ongoing research taking place in the Sanctuary.
Join us at OHM’s new Savannah office (1702 Bull Street, Savannah) on Thursday, April 17. Doors open at 6:30 PM; the lecture will begin at 7. If you can’t come in person, join us online!
