Cetacean & Seabird Identification Workshops – LAST FEW PLACES REMAINING


MARINElife is delighted to announce that we still have had a small number of places come available for our September 2010  Cetacean & Seabird Identification Workshops on the P&O cruiseferry ‘Pride of Bilbao’ travelling across the fantastic Bay of Biscay.  This is your last opportunity to travel on the Pride of Bilbao
as she goes out of service at the end of September.

Biscay Dolphin Research Programme (BDRP) has been conducting whale, dolphin and seabird surveys of the English Channel and Bay of Biscay each month, year-round continuously since 1995.  BDRP is an award-winning project within the established charity MARINElife that aims to further the conservation of whales, dolphins, seabirds and other marine life through scientific study and educational activities.

Because of the work we have undertaken, the English Channel and the Bay of Biscay is now recognised as one of the most important areas in the world for whales and dolphins!

Come and join some of the most experienced cetacean and seabird researchers in the UK for a fully interactive workshop where you will learn all the basic skills needed to observe and identify these fantastic animals at sea.  

This workshop is ideal for anyone with a general interest in marine wildlife, students studying Marine Biology or similar subjects, people who want some firsthand experience of field work as well any prospective Marine Mammal Observers (MMO’s).

Workshop Dates:
13-16 September – 2 cabins
22-25 September – 4 cabins

Cost is £145 per person based on two people sharing a 2 bunk inside cabin.
