Sea SpotterSea Spotter

A field journal for life seen on, in, and under the water.

Report marine wildlife sightings, explore real-time probability maps, and help fellow sailors know what is swimming nearby.

Everything a sailor needs.

Real-time sightings map

See where dolphins, orcas, whales, and more were spotted — updated in real time as the community reports.

Probable areas

A time-decay algorithm models how far an animal may have moved since the last sighting, drawing probability circles that expand and fade over time.

One-tap reporting

Submit a sighting in seconds. GPS coordinates are captured automatically. Offline? Reports queue and sync when you reconnect.

Listener notifications

Set up automatic geographic listeners. Get notified the moment something surfaces in your area.

Built-in ethics

Every user agrees to a wildlife ethics code. Sea Spotter is a passive observation tool — not a hunting guide.

8 languages

Available in English, Polish, German, Italian, Croatian, Spanish, French, and Portuguese.
