Lion fish

We aim to address the issue through the creation of a Ionian dive center network, facilitating study and monitoring.
Posidonia oceanica is a flowering grass found at depths of 1- 40m. They are one of the largest and oldest living organisms on earth, and naturally reduce global warming by absorbing carbon dioxide. We are working to monitor and protect this crucial species.
The streets of Fiskardo are the playground of many cats. Although the cats in Fiskardo are well fed during the summer from table scraps and friendly tourists, they often have a tough winter and some don’t survive. We appeal through the summer for people to donate cat food
