More information
The history of the Antinea Foundation began in early 2000 with the creation of 2 associations in Geneva, the Association Pacifique and the Association Antinea. Antinea had as its objective to organise a global circumnavigation on board of a yacht which would serve as a platform for research and communication, in a quest to contribute to the protection of the marine environment. Nowdays, to further our scientific knowledge of the marine environment, the Foundation serves as a research platform through its flagship Fleur de Passion. The expedition ship makes it possible to carry out projects in remote areas by providing a mobile logistics and research platform. Antinea’s expedition will include research in all major scientific fields related to the marine environment, including medicine, biodiversity, ecology, climatology and underwater archaeology.
