MARINElife Surveys you can join

Join our team of volunteer surveyors.

MARINElife is a charitable organisation devoted to the conservation of whales, dolphins, porpoises, seals and seabirds in the NE Atlantic.

Today, MARINElife carries out scientifically robust surveys made by experienced volunteers, on a variety of vessels at sea in UK and bordering waters, from small boats through to large commercial ferries. The work is done in partnership with a wide range of sponsoring bodies from ecotourism through to research institutes and shipping companies.

We are always looking for volunteers with experience to join our existing team of surveyors to help with our surveys.
