EcoOcean is a non-profit organization dedicated to a healthy marine environment.

The organization drives to its goals through research, education and community engagement, key factors on the path to sustainability.

EcoOcean operates the Mediterranean Explorer, a state of the art research vessel. On the vessel is RUTI, the remotely operated Vehicle (ROV), jointly owned by EcoOcean and the Interuniversity Institute for Marine Sciences in Eilat. Ruti helps us study marine environments down to a depth of 1000 meters, c. 3,280 feet.

Thousands of students participate each year in educational programs designed for a variety of ages and visit 'Megalim', our educational activity center.

The Blue Flag program encourages municipalities to manage designated beaches in a more sustainable manner. We also harness social and traditional media, such as our “#2-minute beach clean” campaign, to motivate the public to clean up our beaches, keep them unpolluted and take active responsibility for the environment.
