Night rescue brigades – SOS Cagarro Campaign (2026)
Volunteers can join the night rescue brigades of the 32nd SOS Cagarro Campaign, running from 15 October to 15 November. They help juvenile Cory's shearwaters grounded by artificial lighting to return safely to the sea. The campaign is run by the Azores regional government, with information at cagarro@azores.gov.pt.
About the project
Blue Azores is a marine conservation programme set up in 2019 by the Regional Government of the Azores, the Oceano Azul Foundation and the Waitt Institute to protect the Azores Sea. It led the creation of the largest network of marine protected areas in the North Atlantic, covering 30% of the archipelago's waters.
