REEF Fest 2021 is coming up on October 14-17. Many REEF members have already registered to join us in Key Largo, Florida, for this annual marine conservation celebration. If you haven't yet made plans to attend, we hope you will consider joining us. REEF Fest includes ocean seminars and educational workshops, evening social events with plenty of food and drinks, and opportunities for diving, snorkeling, and kayaking. Most REEF Fest events are free to attend, but pre-registration is requested. For complete event details and registration, please visit www.REEF.org/REEFfest.

The health and safety of our members, staff, and the local community remains our top priority. We’ve made modifications to the event set up and have taken additional measures to proactively support safety during the event. REEF will be following all CDC guidelines during REEF Fest, and we encourage participants who are eligible to get vaccinated to protect themselves and others from COVID-19. Participants are also encouraged to wear face masks when indoors, practice social distancing, and frequently wash and sanitize hands. All REEF Fest events will be held outdoors aside from the seminars, which are hosted in a large, well-ventilated venue. We are continuously monitoring the status of COVID-19 within the region, and will be in communication with all registered participants with additional details about safety measures in place during the event. The safety of our REEF family is our priority. After such a long stretch apart, we look forward to celebrating with you this fall.

If you have any questions, please contact events@REEF.org or call (305) 852-0030.
