i mean im not entirely sure what all marine biology entails, or what you'd be able to do but maybe see if the area around you/somewhere in driving distance has a zoo or aquarium? near me there's a big aquarium so they offer some work experience for people. they might have an age limit or things like that tho so you'd have to check. might be fun idk

hii, i came on here to ask the same thing 😂 i’ve been reading up on it and i think local aquariums or zoos usually have volunteering opportunities depending on where you live. if you live closer to the coast then there are usually some clubs / volunteering / jobs at the beaches depending on your area. if you cannot access these then there are some virtual options like the website zooniverse or MBA etc, hope this helps :smile:
