Environmental Education and Protection

BECAUSE THE SEA IS OUR HOME

"We want to give everybody the chance to explore the sea and to understand it."

At SEA MATES, we are committed to protecting the Adriatic and regularly organize Clean-Up Dives to keep the popular bays around Cres clean.

In addition, we offer workshops on the biodiversity of the Adriatic and talks on marine conservation. Become a SEA MATE and support us in our environmental protection projects.

SEA for Kids

JUST FOR KIDS PROGRAMS

​At SEA MATES, it’s especially important to us that children have the opportunity to explore the sea in a fun and engaging way. Through creative activities and child-friendly diving and snorkeling trips, we introduce them to the underwater world and conservation efforts.

Our programs raise awareness about environmental protection and inspire the next generation to care for the sea. We want every child to leave with a smile and a deep appreciation for the ocean. With these programs we want to give the NEXT GENERATION the freedom to exchange ideas with their peers, do research and most of all: make new friends..
