Join Reef Watch Waikīkī
Join Reef Watch Waikīkī to help monitor and identify reef fish in the Waikīkī Marine Life Conservation District. Our "Fish Watch" monitoring program uses a roving survey method developed by the Reef Environmental Education Foundation (REEF) that can be conducted with minimal training and basic snorkel gear. You will work in a team to conduct a thirty minute REEF survey to record the different species and number of each fish observed. After being trained, you can conduct a REEF survey anywhere on O'ahu (but we hope you'll help us out in Waikiki once in a while!).
· Feb. 2 (Wednesday), 9:00am-Noon: REEF Fish ID Class followed by an optional Snorkel Survey · Feb. 20 (Sunday), 8:00am-11:00am: REEF Fish ID Class followed by an optional Snorkel Survey · Mar. 2 (Wednesday), 9:00am-Noon: REEF Fish ID Class followed by an optional Snorkel Survey · Mar. 19 (Saturday), 8:00am-11:00am: REEF Fish ID Class followed by an optional Snorkel Survey
REEF FISH ID CLASS: To participate in a REEF survey, you must first attend a reef fish identification training class. The class includes basic coral reef ecology and fish biology, followed by identification tips and specific information about different fish families found in Hawai'i. BRING: Sun protection and a comfy beach chair since we'll be sitting outside on the grass for an extended period.
SNORKEL SURVEYS: Snorkel surveys are open to past participants of our REEF Fish ID classes. Anyone wishing to participate should be a strong swimmer, competent snorkeler, and have his/her own mask, snorkel and fins. Each snorkel survey will last approximately 30-40 minutes and involve identifying, counting and recording fish observed in the Waikiki Marine Life Conservation District. After the snorkel, we’ll gather on the beach to identify any unknown fish and share sightings of cool marine critters.
REGISTER: If you’d like to join us, please RSVP to Heather at [email protected] so we can provide you with additional details in advance of the survey, and so we can notify you if the event is cancelled or postponed on short notice due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances.
