Mote Marine Laboratory and Aquarium

Mote Marine Laboratory and Aquarium is an independent, nonprofit marine research organization dedicated to today's research for tomorrow's oceans and to outreach through education programs and The Aquarium at Mote, a visitor attraction in Sarasota, Fla. We uncover, discover, protect and restore our ocean habitats and the animals that live in them. We want the public to know what we’re doing, why it matters and how they can help.
