What is The Dolphin Project  (TDP)? 

Founded in 1989, it's the longest running and largest ALL-Volunteer, non-profit (501c3) Research, Education and Conservation organization dedicated to the protection of the wild, estuarine Bottlenose dolphin and our shared environment. TDP follows the guidelines of the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA)  and conducts Photo-ID dolphin research.

Happy Healthy New Year! 

We're looking forward to revving up our TDP Bottlenose Dolphin research and hope that you’ll join us in this prestigious study.  The 2023 survey dates are posted on this website calendar.

If you are interested in participating in Photo-ID research surveys, please review the information on the Training page and check the Calendar link for available Zoom Training Workshop dates. Training and Membership are prerequisites for survey participation. Volunteers are also needed for Education Outreach events.
