Program information
The effects of overtourism on the environment are well-documented and dire. And in the rich, biodiverse coastal waters of the Spanish Canary islands, the effects of tourism are most acutely felt by its most vulnerable species – whales and dolphins. This is where you come in. You’ll play a key role in research efforts, contributing to the protection of the habitat for these magnificent creatures.
