The Laguna Maritime Alliance is a coalition of coastal families, scientists, and watermen dedicated to protecting the future of our ocean through balanced, science-based conservation.

We believe that stewardship of the sea requires nuance, evidence, and respect — not ideology. Our mission is to safeguard Laguna’s maritime heritage while advancing policies that sustain both healthy ecosystems and thriving coastal communities.

By combining traditional knowledge with modern marine science, we work to ensure that access, conservation, and sustainability coexist — preserving the right to fish, dive, and explore for generations to come.

We stand for:

• Science over slogans — policy guided by research and data.

• Conservation with balance — protecting resources without erasing tradition.

• Community and access — keeping the ocean open to those who care for it most.

• Education and stewardship — inspiring the next generation of responsible ocean users.
