Building awareness together

We work to raise awareness of the vital relationship between humans and the seas and oceans, as well as their protection and conservation.

Who are we and what do we aim to do for our seas?

Palma Aquarium opened in 2007 as a marine park committed to the conservation of all the world's seas and oceans, and in particular the Balearic Sea. Over the years, it has played an active role in numerous environmental actions that share this goal.

In March 2016, the 'Palma Aquarium Foundation for Environmental Protection' was officially set up. This non-profit organisation, promoted by Palma Aquarium, aims to provide human and material resources to support conservation, education, and research.

Seguimiento y Recuperación de la Fauna Marina Catalogada en las Islas Baleares
Centro de Recuperación

La Fundación Palma Aquarium es la entidad encargada de asisitir los varamientos de fauna marina que se producen en Baleares.


En el año 2014, Palma Aquarium firmó el contrato de servicio: “Seguimiento y Recuperación de la Fauna Marina Catalogada en las Islas Baleares” con el COFIB (Consorcio de recuperación de la Fauna de las Islas Baleares), organismo perteneciente al Servei de Protecció d’Espècies de la Conselleria de Medi Ambient i Territori del Govern de les Illes Balears.


Desde junio del 2022 la asistencia de los varamientos de fauna marina de Baleares pasó a estar al cargo de la Fundación Palma Aquarium y se engloba dentro del proyecto “Conservación y protección de especies marinas amenazadas (tortugas marinas, cetáceos y tiburones) en las Islas Baleares” bajo el acrónimo de OCEMIB, apoyado por la Fundación Biodiversidad del Ministerio para la Transición Ecológica y el Reto Demográfico (MITECO) a través del Plan de Recuperación y Resiliencia (PRTR), financiado por los fondos de la Unión Europea Next GenerationEU.
