This is what your adventure trip looks like

Join our team on the "OASIS" research campaigns in the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Serra de Tramuntana in the north of Mallorca – a mountain range that drops steeply into the deep blue Mediterranean Sea, providing a stunning backdrop for our project. ‎‎ Our main goal is to study dolphins and sea turtles while addressing threats to their habitats, such as ghost nets.

We work closely with local fishermen to improve their fishing practices and are expanding a network of fishermen and sailors who help report and recover ghost nets and advocate for proper turtle rescue. ‎‎ Volunteers quickly become part of the team and join our ongoing marine research programs while experiencing authentic Mediterranean land life. On good days, we work aboard the research inflatable boat "T/T TOFTE" or the small fishing boat "Passador." Our base camp is a traditional house in the mountains, "Ca'n Canyelles," which we are gradually renovating together. ‎‎ In this unique environment of "mountains and sea," we stay active and closely connected to nature. Everyone shares responsibility – from research tasks to cooking and cleaning. Above all, it’s a team project that aims to make every moment meaningful and productive. ‎‎ This new project full of potential relies on volunteers like you to keep growing. Our goal is for each 2025 expedition to leave a lasting impact, ensuring the continuity of the "Tramuntana" base camp and conservation projects for years to come
