A new membership model

After 50 years of advocacy, Save The Bay has entered into yet another chapter of exciting organizational growth. We are adding to our team, growing our programs, and expanding our impact. In tandem with this progress, we reimagined our membership model for the first time in nearly a decade. As of January 1, 2024, we replaced our existing membership levels and benefits with those listed below.

With the new model, all Save The Bay members will continue to enjoy exclusive discounts to our public programs, including our Seal Tours, Nature Cruises, Lighthouse Tours, and Bay Camps, as well as a host of additional discounts from our partners.

Please note: If you are a current Save The Bay member and see changes to your membership level, your current membership will remain in place through your existing expiration date. You have access to the benefits listed below as of Jan. 1.

Already a member, but ready to take that membership to the next level?
