This course is designed to teach students about the major habitats found in a tropical marine ecosystem. In addition, we will investigate man-made structures, such as artificial reefs, which serve as natural habitats. Students will become intimately familiar with many of the common inhabitants of the natural habitats of Bimini and many of the ecological and behavioral associations of these inhabitants. The station is a small wood frame structure on it's own tiny cove. Bedding and linens are provided.
Meals are prepared in a small kitchen and there are two bathrooms with showers to serve the group.
