The smile of the dolphins and the songs of the whales are 20.000.000 years old! For over four thousands years they have enriched the Greek civilization, among others through myths and legends, but also in the art and science. The Greek Seas present an unexpected wealth of marine life. However, nobody was aware of the wealth in cetaceans until the scientific work of the Pelagos Institute brought it at surface. Nobody knew that the most important population unit of sperm whales in the Mediterranean permanently inhabits the Greek Seas. It was the Pelagos Institute that discovered the sperm whales in Crete and later the Ionian Sea, published its discoveries in scientific journals and broadcasted the news across the media. The Pelagos Cetacean Research Institute is a scientific, non-profit and non-governmental organization that works for the development of the cetacean research aiming at the conservation of dolphins and whales and their natural habit in both Greece and the Mediterranean
Help us to keep the dolphins and the whales alive and smiling and give the next human generation the right to enjoy the benefits of their presence in our seas. Support our effort, so that we can continue to work scientifically for the conservation of one of the most valuable pieces of both our natural and cultural heritage.
