Oceans Research provides and facilitates innovative and dynamic research relevant to the management and conservation of Southern Africa’s wildlife.
Its research is interdisciplinary, ranging from biological to socio-economic studies of marine and terrestrial resource utilization in Southern Africa’s coastal society. Oceans Research specializes in investigating the biology and ecology of megafauna, including sharks, marine mammals and terrestrial carnivores; we advise governmental and non-governmental bodies on relevant conservation issues.
Oceans Research offers multi-disciplinary practical and theoretical training for aspiring researchers from internship to postgraduate levels in conjunction with partner schools, technical colleges and universities. In addition to the in-house research projects, the institute provides facilities for visiting marine scientists conducting a variety of projects throughout the major marine biomes of Southern Africa.
Oceans Research strives to divulgate its research finding not only to the scientific community but also, and even more importantly, to the general public, through its website, media releases, scientific and popular articles, and documentaries.

My time with oceans was an incredible experience that I’ll never forget. The wildlife we witnessed and the fieldwork were inspiring and grew a deep passion for the South African marine ecosystem in all of us. The friendships I made will last a lifetime and I will definitely be drawn back to the South African waters.
