The Great Seal Count in Iceland 2022

Volunteers Needed at the Icelandic Seal Center
Come join us for our annual Great Seal Count at the Icelandic Seal Center. We need groups of volunteers to count seals along the coastline of the Vatnsnes Peninsula.

Saturday, July 30 at 09.00, the Great Seal Count will be held by the Icelandic Seal Center in Hvammstangi. We encourage everyone to participate, whether you are a local, landowner, or tourist on your trip around the country. Participation gives people the opportunity to see harbor seals in their natural environment.

Program for the counting day:

At 09:00 is the delivery of data, presentation, and training at the Seal Center. Coffee and drinks are available for participants.

At 10.30-14.00, the seal count takes place and it is good to have binoculars with you.
When you are finished, registration of data online or submission of data inbox at the Icelandic Seal Center.
