Gower Marine Mammals Project

The Gower Marine Mammals Project aims to promote greater awareness and understanding of the marine mammals that are found in the seas around South Wales.  We are currently conducting research into the activities and distribution of the Harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) in the Bristol Channel.   [more]. Our initial report has now been approved by our project parners and can be downloaded here.

The Project was founded in April 1999, with grant aid from the Sustainable Swansea Initiative, to support and extend the work of volunteer cetacean watchers who had been actively logging harbour porpoise activity in the area since the mid 1990’s. [more].
