Salish Sea Marineapedia

Discover. Share. Inspire.

My Salish Sea Marineapedia is a citizen science project launched by the Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre. Students and classes are encouraged to collect information, photos and videos about the fascinating species that live in our local waters. Discover the biodiversity of your ocean, share what you learn and inspire others to make a difference!
