Protecting The Bahamas Through Science, Education & Action
Waterkeepers Bahamas is a Bahamian registered non-profit environmental organization dedicated to protecting and restoring the nation’s precious waters, coastlines, and ecosystems for present and future generations.
Established in 2014 under the umbrella of Save The Bays, which was founded in 2012, Waterkeepers Bahamas brings together passionate staff, volunteers, scientists, students, community members, and partners who share a common goal—ensuring that The Bahamas remains healthy, resilient, and environmentally sustainable.
Our mission is to advocate for the protection, restoration, and responsible stewardship of Bahamian watersheds, marine environments, and coastal ecosystems through science, education, community engagement, and environmental advocacy.
What We Do
Waterkeepers Bahamas combines scientific research with community action to address some of the country’s most pressing environmental challenges. Our work includes:
- Water Quality Monitoring – Conducting regular water quality testing across The Bahamas to help ensure safe recreational waters and protect public health.
- Environmental Restoration – Restoring mangrove forests, coastal habitats, and other critical ecosystems that strengthen biodiversity and build climate resilience.
- Environmental Education – Inspiring the next generation of environmental leaders through school programs, youth initiatives, summer camps, and community outreach.
- Citizen Science – Empowering volunteers and communities to participate in environmental monitoring and conservation efforts.
- Advocacy & Policy – Promoting science-based environmental policies and advocating for the protection of The Bahamas’ natural resources.
- Community Partnerships – Collaborating with government agencies, NGOs, schools, businesses, and local communities to develop sustainable environmental solutions.
Science You Can Trust
Waterkeepers Bahamas operates a fully equipped environmental laboratory that enables our team to independently analyze water samples and provide accurate, timely information to the public, government agencies, and community partners. By combining scientific data with community engagement, we help inform environmental decision-making and encourage transparency in the protection of our natural resources.
Protecting What Makes The Bahamas Special
Healthy oceans, thriving mangrove forests, clean beaches, and abundant marine life are essential to the wellbeing of our people, our economy, and our way of life. Through restoration projects, environmental monitoring, public education, and conservation initiatives, Waterkeepers Bahamas works every day to safeguard these invaluable ecosystems.
Whether restoring mangroves, engaging youth through hands-on environmental programs, conducting water quality assessments, or mobilizing volunteers for community clean-ups, our goal remains the same: to leave The Bahamas healthier than we found it.
