Join the Blue World Institute and discover wild bottlenose dolphins! Blue World Institute (BWI) is an NGO set up with the intention to carry out scientific research and conservation of the marine environment as well as educational activities, with the aim to secure the future of the Adriatic Sea.
One of the interests of the BWI is monitoring and conservation of wild bottlenose dolphins. The monitoring program in the North Adriatic Sea is running for more than 30 years. Each year during the summer season BWI accepts eco-volunteers to help with the data collection on this endangered species. By joining BWI you get to observe the local population of wild bottlenose dolphins around the Cres-Lošinj archipelago. As an eco-volunteer you will discover their social connections, how big their home ranges are. You will be able to hear the sounds, which they produce while preforming different behaviors. You will find out who are the mothers, which are the dominant males and a lot more. This year the program starts from 7th May and lasts until 21st September. You can pick one of 10 stages, and join BWI for 2 weeks. It is important that you know English, that you are above 18 years old and able to tolerate hot weather and boat trips for several hours.
