WHALES & DOLPHINS

MONITORING OF  WHALES AND DOLPHINS

Our marine biologists and guides collect observational data about all whales & dolphins spotted whilst onboard the vessels of our partner company, Dyer Island Cruises. All sightings are mapped and this creates a knowledge foundation that is used for various studies. On each trip, we take readings of water temperature, pressure and oxygen levels.

The collection of this observational & environmental data is critical to the understanding of the cetaceans frequenting our area and the studies of various biologists.
