Volunteer-Driven Research and Conservation Since 2009

Our mission is to harness the power of Citizen Science to study, advocate for, and educate about the majestic whales and marine mammals of our oceans.

Since 2009, Gotham Whale has harnessed the passion of researchers and volunteers to document and study whales in NYC waters, relying on public support to sustain its vital research and conservation efforts. All that we do is for the whales.

There's room for everyone to join the efforts onboard.

We welcome any form of contribution from volunteers and citizens who share our love for whales.
