Protecting the environment – Conservation involvement
Wilfred Chivell, owner of Marine Dynamics Whale Tours and Marine Dynamics, is certainly the most knowledgeable person about the ecosystem and varied wildlife found on and around Dyer Island. His care and dedication to the health of this sensitive eco-system has lead to the launch of key conservation projects for the area:
African penguin conservation which includes a nest project providing critical protection during the penguin fledgling stage; and in 2015 DICT opened a rehabilitation facility, the African Penguin and Seabird Sanctuary.
Invaluable research on great white sharks by marine biologists includes tagging and tracking, behavioural surveys, wound healing, environmental parameter monitoring and population studies.
Support of whale and dolphin research.
We handle all marine animal rescue, strandings and sampling on our coastline.
Our Environmental Education Programme known as DEEP educates a dedicated group of young learners for three years measuring the impact and growth of each individual.
Marine pollution efforts include the unique fishing line bin project, monthly beach clean-ups, and storm drain catchment nets.
