Helping to maintain, monitor, and restore New Hampshire’s coastal habitats.
New Hampshire’s coastal watershed is made up of salt marshes, dunes, tidal rivers, forests, wetlands, coastal islands, and more. NH Sea Grant aims to support and promote these healthy ecosystems through restoration, education, outreach, and other natural solutions.
