Overview
Marine Conservation Volunteering
You will be at the forefront of promoting responsible dolphin tourism, through vital research and ethical practices.
The dolphin tourism industry generates essential income for an otherwise very poor island, with a huge array of marine life, wildlife and more on offer.
Become part of our mission to strike the right balance between allowing for tourism to grow, benefiting the local community and people of Zanzibar while conserving dolphins and marine life for many more generations to come.
Overview of the Marine Conservation Volunteering Project
This project was developed to investigate the damaging impacts of marine tourism on the dwindling dolphin population.
Alongside our partnership with Es Salaam University, volunteers are fully involved with providing credible and meaningful data, to support the implementation of ethical, tourism policies.
Zanzibar is one of the last remaining natural areas in the world, with a dolphin population, which is not governed by guidelines that limit the impact of tourism on their natural behaviours.
This is where volunteers come in, to ensure that this unique and precious dolphin population does not suffer the consequences of unregulated tourism.
With the dolphin tourism industry continuing to boom, it’s about being ethical. We must strike a balance between promoting a buzzing tourist destination, which directly supports and benefits the local communities, while also protecting and preserving these incredible mammals. Stress to dolphins can push them away from natural feeding areas, into quieter waters.
Let’s make a difference and create an environment where locals can flourish, because of increased tourism, while sea-life can live in harmony.
