Coastal Science. Community Solutions.

At Texas Sea Grant, serving our coasts means putting applied science into action to create practical solutions that support sustainability, resilience, and thriving coastal communities. We work hand-in-hand with scientists, local leaders, and residents to preserve the quality and abundance of our coastal and marine resources—balancing environmental stewardship with economic vitality.

From supporting the seafood industry and recreational fisheries to addressing critical issues like habitat loss, water quality, and climate resilience, our programs are rooted in service and grounded in community. Everything we do is about making science work where it matters most: in the hands of the people who live, work, and rely on the Texas coast every day.
