Volunteer

Whether you are retired and looking for a way to give back to the community, a college student looking for valuable career experience, or someone actively working and just looking for an occasional change of pace, there are opportunities for you as a volunteer at Biscayne National Park. Volunteers fill a variety of roles in the park, including: * providing visitor information at the Dante Fascell Visitor Center * counting and measuring fish at area marinas to provide important data that will help ensure sustainable fisheries * roving the park's islands in a boat providing visitor information * working with kids and families at the park's award-winning Family Fun Fest * serving as a resident host onboard your own boat at Boca Chita Key * participating in one of several yearly cleanups to help remove some of the many tons of debris that wash onto park shorelines Potential volunteers can e-mail or call the park's volunteer coordinator at 305-230-1144, x3035 for more information.
