marine life of mumbai
“There are no boundaries here. The human, the planetary and the animal all interact, and all of them are inter-leaved in the realities of the shore. None makes sense without the others.”
Adam Nicolson
Community Walks
We host guided shorewalks for families, students, and curious minds alike, offering a hands-on introduction to the extraordinary life hiding in Mumbai’s intertidal zones.
Education
From school groups to seasoned naturalists, we create opportunities to learn about coastal ecosystems; fostering a deeper understanding of the species, habitats, and ecological processes that make Mumbai’s shoreline unique.
Baseline Data Collection
Every sighting is logged on iNaturalist, building a long-term, freely accessible record of species presence along Mumbai’s shores that researchers and conservationists can draw on for years to come.
Citizen Science
Our community of volunteers is at the heart of everything we do. By contributing observations, photographs, and local knowledge, every participant plays a meaningful role in documenting Mumbai’s marine biodiversity.
