The Oceania Project

The Oceania Project was established in 1988 by Trish and Wally Franklin as an environmental and scientific organization for the advancement of community education in the field of Cetacea (Whales, Dolphins, and Porpoises) and the Ocean Environment.

Tour & Transport

Sustainability Commitment

The organizations' principal purpose is the protection and enhancement of Cetacea and the Ocean Environment through carrying on research, providing education, and disseminating information. The organization has established relationships with local and State governments and Community Organisations and has wide community involvement and support. The first phase of a long-term study of Humpback Whales in Hervey Bay - 1992 to 2005 - has been the major work of The Oceania Project. This work was, and continues to be made possible, by individuals who participate in The Oceania Project's Internship Program. To date, more than 1500 Interns (paying eco-volunteers) have joined the Annual Whale Research Expeditions in Hervey Bay. Involvement is open to all Members of the Public and no prior experience is needed.
