Be Citizen Science-Ready
Become a Citizen Scientist with the help of your smartphone and these easy-to-use apps. Get started before you join your expedition and start contributing to global research straight from your pocket.
Get Involved with Happywhale
It’s easy to get involved! If you have any images of whales from your travels (recent or old), simply submit these on the Happywhale website and the platform will do the rest. Don't forget to select the ship and trip you joined when submitting! Learn about where your whale has been, where it might visit next, and so much more.
What to Do Before You Travel
Although our ships offer Wi-Fi on board, our expedition cruises travel to remote destinations, which means that internet coverage and speed can be limited at times. That’s why we recommend downloading some of the key citizen science apps onto your mobile devices before joining your expedition cruise with us so that you are all set to connect to your inner scientist.
This will allow you to get involved across a range of projects, submitting your own photos and data and receiving updates on your personal observations, from whale fluke matches to plant identification. Don’t worry—if you are unable to download the apps in advance, you will still be able to join in on citizen science activities as a group with your fellow guests and our Expedition Team.
