Support Our Marine Research Fleet

Help us strengthen our field capacity in South Pelion and the Aegean Sea. Merman Conservation Expeditions Ltd. is raising funds to purchase a small research boat and electric motor for coastal seal monitoring, and to secure one year of fuel and vessel insurance for shark and ray (elasmobranch) fieldwork.

Small Research Boat

€800 – €1000

For coastal surveys, wildlife monitoring, and biodiversity documentation near our base in South Pelion.

Electric Motor

€300

For quiet, low-impact navigation near monk seal caves and sensitive marine habitats.

Fuel & Insurance

€1500 – €2000

Covers one full year of operations for our larger research boat used in shark and ray surveys, including annual vessel insurance.

Every contribution directly supports our ongoing Seal Quest and Elasmobranch Monitoring projects. Your donation fuels research on Monachus monachus, sharks, rays, and other key species across Greek and UK waters.

Goal: €2600 – €3300 | All donations go entirely toward field logistics, research equipment, and vessel operations.

What Our Donors Receive
