Through steady action, we will ensure a bright future for our dolphins, whales and their environment.
Protecting our Precious Marine Life

Protecting marine mammals needs real impact in four areas
DOLPHINS AND WHALES – knowledge for wildlife management.
THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT – coastal pollution and resilience to climate change.
THE COMMUNITY – foster citizen science, leadership and behaviour change.
DRI – build capacity and sustainability to drive long-term programs.
We stand proud, working with Victorians since 1991 to build a unique community of scientists, educators, students, interns, volunteers, businesses and donors. Together, we are part of something larger and extraordinary. With our combined efforts, we can provide a healthy future for Victoria’s unique marine life.
What we do
Our programs areas work together to achieve impact.
How can you help?
