We are a global provider of marine education and at the forefront of shark research. Our belief is that constant scientific research together with education is the key driver to inspire long-term change and commitment to sustain an abundant & vibrant marine environment. Through these tools, we strive to inspire, engage and empower future marine and environmental biologists, as well as the community, to make positive steps to generate healthier oceans now, and in the future.

As an organization we offer an educational and professional platform for local, national and international students and provide all of the necessary logistical support they might need to accomplish their research goals, under the supervision of our team.

Our mission
