1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣👀The Great Gibraltar Beach Cleans initiative kickstarted 6 years ago at #HistoricRosiaBay on 18th February 2017 🪣 It’s been quite the rollercoaster, cleaning up the whole of the Gibraltar coastline on a rotational basis and achieving this milestone 💪 For the Nautilus team it made all the sense in the world to host the 100th #TGGBC at Rosia Bay, a double whammy; 2 milestones in one day: 100 cleans plus the 6th anniversary 🩵 Back full circle 🔵 Inspired by our two boys, Alex and AJ, this initiative has turned into massive community labour of love 💙 Thank you for your support Gibraltar 🇬🇮 We were joined by Diving with Nic, Scuba Ellie and the Resolve Marine Dive team. These two groups joined forces and hauled hundreds of glass bottles, ropes, fishing lures, nets and even a TV! 🤿 Based at the Critter Station, we had Nautilus core members Brian and Desiree, meticulously checking through every item retrieved from the basin. Hundreds of tiny critters, including crabs, spider crabs, brittle stars, sea urchins, chitons, polychaete worms and more, were found amidst the rubbish and separated onto a separate salt water vat 🦀 🦐These were then returned safely back to the ocean 🌊 Clubhouse Gibraltar, The Duke of Edinburgh's International Award Gibraltar , students from Prior Park School and Gibraltar College joined members from the public and scoured the whole area and revetments scooping up all the debris lying around ♻️ A special mention to Paco Aquilina, for trundling down not only to help out but bringing down a chocolate cake to celebrate the landmark, enjoyed by all the volunteers 🍰Metalrok LTD collected all the refuse, weighing in at 460kg, in just 90 minutes! 👊 Teamwork certainly does make the dream work! 🙏 Here’s to the next 100 cleans whilst hoping we turn the tide and we’ll turn this problem around before!

Exciting developments for the marine conservation charity as we kickstart 2023 🩵Since the inception of the Nautilus flagship citizen science application NEMO released on World Environment Day 2018, the app reached the World Challenge Global Forum semi-finals held in Tbilisi later that same year 💪Working closing with BDRI (Bottlenose Dolphin Research Institute) based in Galicia Spain, Nautilus are delighted to launch our 2nd marine science app ‘Orcinus’ now available on both Android and iOS 👏 The new app records the presence of orcas in real time and shares this information with the entire community of Orcinus app users. Reports of sightings instantly provide navigators with data to aid planning their routes ⛵️ The main objective of Orcinus is to contribute to safer navigation making it possible to find out both in advance and instantaneously of killer whales in the area, geolocated by other vessels that will have recorded their sightings 📌 Given the recent issues that have arisen with interactions with these mammals during recreational sailing, the app will help with safe passage for both these magnificent creatures and sailors alike 🙏 The app, endorsed by the Xunta of Galicia, is now officially launched in Spain throughout all the national Ports and ready to be used worldwide 🌎 Extremely grateful to Aaron and Natalia from MGI Limited for the swift, professional development of the app 🙌 Download from here ⬇️play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.thenautilusproject.orcinus#NautilusInternational #InternationalStage #PlacingGibraltarOnTheMap #MakingStrides #Research #Orcas #KillerWhales #MarineConservation #CitizenScience ...

As per their request, yesterday we launched a new interactive workshop at St Joseph's Upper Primary School 🏫 Oil spill effects are long-lasting. Even if there is no visible sheening or sludge patches to the naked eye, oil has mixed within the water column and detrimental effects can last up to a decade🛢 This past term, Year 4 SJUP pupils have been looking at the human effects of pollution in the environment ♻️ Together, we discussed the damage the OS35 has caused along our coastline, debating "Is it worth it?"🚢 An exceptionally well prepared year group that had certainly put a lot of work into this subject.

The Ana Serra Collection 🌊 We are delighted to launch the new Nautilus t-shirt line with marine animal designs created by the amazing local artist, Ana Serra 💙 With three unique designs presently, the collection is set to grow adding more of our incredible sea life images to the Nautilus Sustainable Online Shop products.• The Jellyfish design represents the increase in jellyfish blooms partly due to warming waters associated with Climate Change and the decline of turtles, a main predator of jellyfish. • The Nautilus design is representative of the Charity’s logo.• The Seahorse design represents the dwindling numbers of the two species that inhabit our waters and the importance of Saving Rosia Bay, one of the last homes locally to these iconic fish. All proceeds go towards supporting the charity and the expenses that go into making our educational outreach program possible 🙏 Ana, who successfully completed her Silver #DofE service with us, is continuing her Gold journey 👏 We are very grateful to Ana for donating her incredible talent to aid the charity and we're ecstatic to be able to support her artistry 🎨 #Gibraltar the future looks bright 🌞 ✨️ #artist #OurYouthOurFuture #inspire #AnaSerraCollection #supportingourcommunity #SupportingOurYouthThe Duke of Edinburgh's International Award Gibraltar Cotton Leisure Ltd ...
