Dolphins touch our hearts. They represent freedom, intelligence, and the fragile balance of the ocean. By becoming a sponsor, you support our research, dolphin conservation efforts, and vital educational work on the ground in El Gouna. You’ll dive into their world and become part of a community that pays attention and takes action.
Every sponsorship helps ensure that wild dolphins can continue to live undisturbed in the future — far from stress, engine noise, and mass tourism.
Our sponsorship options
Bronze – CHF 100
A small gesture with a big impact. You’ll receive a personalised certificate with your dolphin’s name and help secure valuable research and conservation projects.
Silver – CHF 500
A token of deeper connection. Your support allows us to spend more days at sea, studying dolphins in their natural habitat. In addition to your certificate, you’ll receive a piece of the ocean to keep: a digital photo of the dolphin you’ve chosen, a reminder of your commitment.
Gold – CHF 1,000
A contribution that brings you closer to the dolphins: along with your certificate, you’ll be invited to spend a day on our research vessel in El Gouna. You’ll accompany our scientists, experience the sea through their eyes, and see firsthand what true dolphin conservation looks like.
Heartfelt Sponsorship – CHF 2,000
A truly special sponsorship: you’ll have the honour of naming the next dolphin calf born into our study population in the Red Sea.
You’re also invited to spend a day on the research vessel and experience our work up close.

A day on the research vessel
Our research days are not typical dolphin tours, but true insights into our daily work. You’ll accompany our scientists as they observe, collect data, and document their findings.
With a bit of luck, you may also encounter the dolphins of El Gouna. However, sightings can never be guaranteed, as dolphins are wild animals, following their own rhythm.
Snorkelling or diving is only permitted if the situation and the dolphins’ behaviour allow it, always intending to create a respectful and positive experience for both humans and animals.
Example of a research day

Important to know
Since research trips are often planned months in advance, spontaneous bookings are usually not possible. Please let us know when you plan to be in El Gouna so we can check if participation is possible.
