dedicated to research and conservation of the Adriatic bottlenose dolphins with
field bases on Croatian islands of Lošinj (Northern Adriatic, Kvarnerić) and
Vis (Central Adriatic, Dalmatia).
ADP Lošinj has a long tradition with eco - volunteering program that offers a
unique opportunity to experience encounters with dolphins in their natural
surroundings actively participating in the research. This includes boat - based
surveying, gaining knowledge in data collection at sea, data entry and
participation in preliminary analysis of collected data.
The research activities include application of photo - identification
techniques, behavioural observations, diet study and acoustic sampling. The eco
- volunteers are also invited to participate in various lectures on dolphin
research and marine biology offered by the research team.
