Marine Conservation Internship

The Northwest Straits Foundation offers a paid marine conservation internship (hourly wage or monthly stipend) based in the Salish Sea/Puget Sound area of Washington State, USA. This hands-on, in-person internship focuses on ecosystem protection and restoration, marine biodiversity, and ocean literacy. Interns gain real-world experience through biological surveys, habitat restoration, volunteer coordination, grant reporting, and public outreach. Additional benefits include academic credit (with partner institutions), professional networking, career support (resume guidance and mentorship), technical skills training, and a sense of community within a mission-driven team. There is no specific application deadline listed on the website; interested candidates must contact the organization directly at info@nwstraitsfoundation.org to inquire about the application process.
