CHAMPIONING PLASTIC FREE OCEANS
At Sanctuary Bay, we campaign against single-use plastics due to their harmful impact on marine life, including our Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphins. Plastic pollution threatens ocean ecosystems and poses risks to dolphins through ingestion or entanglement. By raising awareness, we hope to inspire our guests to help protect the oceans and its marine life.
