Indian River Lakes & Partner Lake Associations

The Indian River Lakes Conservancy is committed to safeguarding the pristine beauty and ecological health of our beloved lakes. As caretakers of these natural treasures, we deeply value our partnership with local lake associations.

Together, we work to preserve water quality through proactive land conservation. We seek to nurture a community that appreciates and protects the fragile balance of our aquatic ecosystems.

While each lake holds its unique charm, many share common challenges. Together with our partner lake associations, we advocate for responsible boating practices such as thorough vessel cleaning, draining, and drying, and we pave the way for a sustainable future where our lakes thrive for generations to come.

We've gather some resources that Lake Associations and Residents to use.
