Welcome to MCSS

The Marine Conservation Society Seychelles (MCSS) is a Non-Governmental Organisation registered in Seychelles which promotes the conservation of the marine environment through education, research and the implementation of a number of programmes. Current activities include long running monitoring programmes on whale sharks and turtles, as well as several grant funded programmes and projects.

The whale shark programme is largely supported by the participation of  the public in a supervised monitoring and encounter programme.  The other projects are supported by grant funding, volunteer effort and sponsorship of local businesses, associations and individuals. Please visit our Projects page for full details of current activities.

Opportunities are currently available for volunteers and for whale shark monitoring internships, visit the Volunteers page for details.
