Sandoway Marine Park: Artificial Reef Development

COASTAL CONSERVATION ASSOCIATION OF PBC JUNE 2021 - JUNE 2023

Situated just 1⁄2 mile off southern Palm Beach County‘s coast in Delray is a 31.5 acre dredge area completely devoid of coral and marine life. Impact 100 PBC funds will be utilized to purchase and deploy a steel hulled vessel in this area this spring. The Sandoway Marine Park Artificial Reef will serve as a new home for displaced marine life, revitalize the coral community and protect the Delray shoreline from erosion. In addition, it will provide new educational opportunities for Palm Beach County students and other visitors at Sandoway Discovery Center, cultivating dedicated environmental stewards for the next generation.
