Activities
The University of Texas at Austin Marine Science Institute, the oldest and most significant marine research facility on the Texas coast, is changing our understanding of the world's oceans and coasts and educating a global population dependent on the ocean ecosystem. What began humbly in 1941 as a small, rough-lumber shack on the shores of the Gulf of Mexico in Port Aransas is now home to cutting-edge research, education, and outreach programs.
