Conservation Commitment

Because of the growing threat of commercial fishing in this incredibly biodiverse marine area, The Divine Dolphin is deeply committed to research, conservation, and education.

In partnership with other conservation organizations, we are actively working to protect these waters for future generations. Together, we have presented a bill to the Costa Rican Congress that would establish a Marine Preserve here—ensuring a safe haven for dolphins, whales, and all marine life that call the Osa Peninsula home.

 By joining The Divine Dolphin’s Whale & Dolphin Tour, you’re doing more than just enjoying a magical, fun and educational day at sea—you’re helping us stay out on the ocean to conduct the vital research and conservation work that protects these incredible creatures. Along the way, you’ll also gain insights that can be deeply inspiring, meaningful, and even spiritual.  How cool is that?

We are proud to be a part the team who made possible the Osa Peninsula being named an Important Marine Mammal Area (IMMA)           CLICK FOR DETAILS
