Community Outreach

For the second year in a row we have been fortunate to be able to offer an educational day for members of some local communities. Students and their parents and teachers come with us for a day of whale watching, games and some fun beach time. Everyone learns about whales, dolphins and marine science in general. We also discuss the importance of conservation, not just for the marine ecosystem, but all ecosystems. Panama is a country rich with many natural resources, and we are excited to inspire the next generation to protect what makes this country so special!  

Everyone is excited to watch a mom and calf pair near the boat!
