The Perry Institute for Marine Science is a renowned 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to revitalizing our oceans. With a focus on coral reefs, fisheries, mangroves, Marine Protected Areas, coastal ecosystems, and climate change, we conduct cutting-edge research and ecosystem restoration programs. Operating for over 50 years, our organization has transformed from a site-based research facility into a program-based non-profit that collaborates with governments, international NGOs, and local organizations throughout The Bahamas and the Caribbean.

Through these partnerships, we conduct research and implement conservation, education, and citizen science programs to protect our oceans and foster a global conservation ethic. Our team consists of leading scientists, researchers, and specialists who are passionate about marine conservation. From Senior Scientists and Communications Directors to Coral Technicians and Research Associates, our highly skilled staff work tirelessly to advance our mission.
