Located on 1.18 acres of waterfront property at the mouth of the St. Johns River, the facility will serve as the hub for Ocearch’s collaborative research efforts, experiential education programs and vessel operations.
– The state of Florida has designated $5 million in funding for Jacksonville University and its world-renowned ocean research partner Ocearch for a marine science research facility in Mayport.
