Ways to Get Involved

The remote location and isolation of the Marianas Trench Marine National Monument make it inaccessible to conduct on-site visits for educational or interpretative purposes. Thus, most educational, and interpretative opportunities are necessarily delivered remotely through publications, off-site educational programs, displays, or other media, to inform and educate the public regarding the coral reef ecosystem and related marine resources and species of the monument and efforts to conserve them. The video “The First Voyage” about the Marianas Trench Marine National Monument showcases the environmental value of the Islands Unit and three northern-most islands of the Marianas and may be available for showing.  For more information on these programs in Saipan, contact Park Ranger Jihan Younis at  (670)234-7207 ext. 4001.
