Why you’ll love this…

Explore the unspoiled Mediterranean waters off the coast of Mallorca on a tour inspired by the work of National Geographic's Pristine Seas project, which aims to protect the last wild places in our oceans.
Learn from a marine biologist about the "Lungs of the Mediterranean" – Posidonia oceanica – and its crucial contribution to biodiversity and maintaining a healthy marine ecosystem.
Explore the area of the Dragonera Islands by kayaking, a responsible, human-powered water sport that has zero impact on the marine environment.
Discover an underwater world, including Posidonia's marine meadows, from your kayak. Enjoy an optional snorkeling tour around the protected area of the Dragonera Islands.
Learn how each of us can play a part in protecting the marine protected areas and the Posidonia meadows, by raising awareness of their role in the battle against global warming, as featured in the National Geographic documentary, 'Pristine Seas: The Power of Protection'.

What to expect

Inspired by National Geographic's Pristine Seas project, which aims to protect the last wild places in our oceans, this National Geographic Day Tour offers a unique opportunity to explore some of the most beautiful and unspoiled Mediterranean waters by kayak. Accompanied by your experienced guide and a marine biologist, you'll learn about the importance of Posidonia.

Let your guide take you on a kayak tour through the marine protected area of the Dragonera Islands, offshore from Sant Elm. It's a rich ecosystem home to dolphins, fish, birds, algae, and more. Enjoy the opportunity to snorkel and marvel at the Posidonia meadows up close, while your guide explains the significance of this seagrass for the Mediterranean and the world.

Learn how we can help protect the Posidonia meadows by raising awareness of their role in the battle against global warming, as featured in the National Geographic documentary, 'Pristine Seas: The Power of Protection'.
