Coastal Bend Bays & Estuaries Program is dedicated to protecting and restoring the health and productivity of the bays and estuaries in the Texas Coastal Bend, while supporting continued economic growth and public use of the bays.  We work with local governments, conservation groups, teachers, students and the public to raise awareness of our natural surroundings through research, restoration and recreation projects, and environmental education.  The health, beauty, and bounty of our bays and estuaries are essential for continued enjoyment of both people and wildlife.

This year marks the 20th anniversary of Coastal Bend Bays & Estuaries Program’s formation as a nonprofit. We are excited to both celebrate the successes of the last 20 years and look ahead to the years to come. We are committed more than ever to continuing our efforts to protect the bays and estuaries of the Texas Coastal Bend.
