Sea Otter Savvy

    Partnerships

    Sea Otter Savvy is the only organization in the world solely dedicated to reducing human-caused disturbance to sea otters. We're a women-led, scientist-run 501(​c)(3) working throughout California and beyond, with a decade of field research published in peer-reviewed literature and an engaged community that spans generations.

    Our partnership program for businesses and organizations that want to support sea otter conservation launches in full in 2027. Join before launch to become a founding partner, with a permanent listing on this page and a founding rate that stays locked when the new tiers take effect. Each founding partnership is built around your goals and can include any of the options below:

    Private Catamaran Tour
