Our Posidonia oceanica seedlings are growing off the Marine Protected Area of Capo Testa – Punta Falcone, in northern Sardinia.

Rising sea-level data are always striking, even though they’re not new. They become even more alarming when the areas at risk are our own coasts, beaches, and favourite shorelines.
Activities continue under the PLASTRON Project, funded by the Italy–France Maritime Programme 2021–2027, which aims to improve the sustainability of local communities by providing knowledge and tools for collecting and transforming plastic waste gathered from coasts, marinas and the sea.
The Great Sailing in Sardinia supports the sea and science. From 25 September to 15 October 2025, the MEDSEA Foundation was hosted by the Sardinia Sailing Cup, an international sailing event that this year brought together five World Championships and several foil classes.

Improving the sustainability of local communities by providing knowledge and tools to promote the transition towards a circular and resource-efficient economy. These are the objectives of PLASTRON, the Interreg Italy–France Maritime project, in line with the European Green Deal and EU actions aimed at achieving climate neutrality and protecting marine habitats.
The Onda Vita 2025 – The Journey of the Whales scientific expedition has set sail from Santa Teresa Gallura.
