Whale Shark and Marine Conservation Program

Hosted by Whale Shark & Oceanic Research Center

At Utila Lodge Resort

The Whale Shark and Oceanic Research Center (WSORC) is happy to announce that it will be offering a series of Whale Shark and Marine Conservation Program weeks. Participants will embark on whale shark snorkel trips where they will not only get the chance to cross an amazing experience off their bucket list, but also help researchers collect valuable data on this enigmatic gentle giant. Included in the week will be workshops and presentations on many aspects of marine conservation. They will participate in reef health surveys, learn how to identify the myriad of fish species that are found in the Bay Islands, conduct fish surveys and contribute to a global sightings database. All activities and lectures will be run by our resident marine biologists at WSORC.
