Orcas.pt: A Personal Project Born from a Passion for sailing with Safety


Orcas.pt is a personal project born from a growing concern for the safety of both orcas and sailors. Recognizing the increasing number of incidents between orcas and sailboats, I felt compelled to take action. Driven by a passion for the sea and a commitment to safety, I began by sharing information within a small group of sailors on WhatsApp. This initial effort, fueled by a desire to help, quickly blossomed into a thriving online community of over 1,500 members.

  • Increasing awareness of orca activity through daily updated maps.

  • Empowering sailors with real-time information to navigate responsibly.
