Welcome to I.CARE!

I.CARE is dedicated to restoring the reefs of Islamorada, including the world-famous Alligator Reef. Our mission is to incorporate local businesses, residents and visitors in the restoration and maintenance of our coral reef communities in Islamorada and the Florida Keys. We have partnered with Mote Marine Laboratory to create the first community based approach to reef restoration in the middle Florida Keys, with opportunities for community members to get involved with activities including coral transplanting, marine debris clean-ups, and reef monitoring. With participation from Islamorada’s businesses and residents, as well as divers across the country, we will restore our reefs for current and future generations.
