WHY BOS?

We were born, raised and now live near the beach and ocean.  We go whenever we can. Even during the New England winters (can you spot Goose?). Help us protect it!  

Blue Ocean Society

Based in Portsmouth, NH, our mission is to protect marine mammals in the Gulf of Maine through education, research and conservation.  Blue Ocean Society was founded by two whale watch naturalists, Jen Kennedy and Dianna Schulte, who were frustrated with the lack of translation of open ocean research into information that could be used by the public. We hope by sharing information with the public and resource managers, more people will be inspired to learn more about the marine environment and help protect it.  Find out more at www.blueoceansociety.org.
