Ferryscanner is beginning a meaningful partnership with Enaleia, a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting the marine ecosystem. This collaboration aims to promote sustainable travel and support ocean conservation efforts, reinforcing a commitment to a greener future.

Enaleia is a social, environmental organization that aims to clean the seas and restore marine biodiversity. Enaleia’s primary initiatives include fishing for litter projects and educational programs designed to promote sustainable fishing practices and waste management among coastal communities. By engaging local communities, fishermen, and volunteers, Enaleia is tackling one of the most pressing issues of our time – plastic marine pollution.

When using Ferryscanner to book your next ferry trip, before reaching the final payment stage, you will have the option to add an Enaleia donation amount (between 2 – 10 euros).

For the same price as your daily coffee, a €2 contribution will be enough to clean the equivalent of 45 plastic bottles from the sea. A €5 donation helps Enaleia clean the equivalent of 100 plastic bottles, while a €10 donation will allow Enaleia to clean approximately 200 pieces of plastic from the sea.

Whatever you are willing to donate goes a very long way and makes a world of difference to the marine ecosystem.
