REEF Ocean Exploration Center, 98380 Overseas Hwy. Key Largo, FL 33037

While lionfish removal is a top priority, REEF also strives to make sustainable choices for use of the lionfish post-removal. Lionfish have red and white stripes and long, fanlike spines and fins. These characteristics make the perfect jewelry to wow everyone. Through this lionfish jewelry workshop, you will learn how to turn an invasive species into a stunning one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry.
