What We Offer


Our Values, Your Experience

We are driven by a shared dream of shaping the Mediterranean into a leading ecotourism destination. Nothing demonstrates our unwavering commitment to this dream more than our core values: community, compassion, conservation and connection. 

Protected Areas

We offer our protected areas members a set of tools to help them collaboratively work with the tourism sector to develop ecotourism that benefits conservation and local communities. By becoming a MEET Member your protected area will be joining a network of parks who are committed to improving tourism practices across the Mediterranean!

Travel Industry Partners

We’re looking for travel industry partners who share our vision. Who want to shape the Mediterranean into a leading ecotourism destination and will sell our market-tested ecotourism experiences, giving their travellers the opportunity to re-discover the Mediterranean. 

Travellers

Let us re-introduce you to the Meditteranean. MEET experiences offer travellers the chance to immerse themselves in local nature and culture, while supporting conservation efforts and local communities in and around protected areas.

Commitments

“What makes our MEET model truly unique is that it puts conservation and the natural park in the driving seat of tourism development, ensuring public-private collaboration and the active participation of destination stakeholders.”
