A special encounter on our coastline 🦭

Every sighting helps build a better picture of where marine mammals are, how they use our coast, and how we can better protect them.

If you spot a seal, dolphin, whale or other marine mammal, you can log your sighting in SeaSpotter and contribute to real research and conservation action.
