PROTECTING THE PLACES WE EXPLORE

Over the last thirty years, we’ve endlessly explored, paddled and trekked the water trails that weave through the Lowcountry of South Carolina. We see the rapid changes to our shorelines and wildlife nesting areas, and we know from our work that the best way to get people to act is to give them a meaningful experience in that environment.

The foundation is a natural extension of Coastal Expeditions, Inc., allowing our passion for things like loggerhead conservation and environmental education to expand.

The mission of the Coastal Expeditions Foundation is to keep the Lowcountry wild through habitat protection and environmental education.

Mount Pleasant company connects Lowcountry students to nature through field trips and summer camps

Chris Crolley, CEO and founder of Coastal Expeditions, said it’s important to connect with nature while learning about it.

“These kids want to be outside, they want to learn outside, because that is what we’ve been doing for the majority of our history as earthlings,” Crolley said. “So what we’re doing is basically introducing earthlings to Earth.”
