Blue World Institute of Marine Research and Conservation runs several research projects on bottlenose dolphins in the Adriatic Sea. You can now join our research team in North Dalmatia as a volunteer and contribute to our effort to understand and protect this vulnerable species. The duration of volunteer courses is 10 days. During this time volunteers are an integral part of the team, living and working on board our mobile field station MB Anika - a 14 meters long wooden kutter. During field surveys volunteers and researchers use a 5.2 meters inflatable boat to search for dolphins and collect navigational, environmental, photo-ID and behavioural data. Upon returning to MB Anika the team works on data storage and analysis, boat maintenance, but there is also plenty of time off. This is a great opportunity to learn first-hand about biology and ecology of the species, practice skills and techniques to collect and analyze data and to have great time sailing through stunning archipelago.
