Life at Elding has been incredible so far. Working as a naturalist at Elding makes it possible to spend so much time out at sea with the wildlife here. Seeing a beautiful fluke-dive or breach from close-by will never not be exciting! Giving people an unforgettable experience while being able to use the platform as a naturalist to teach people more about the cetaceans and the importance of nature conservation is what makes this job all-round perfect
