*What is SPAMI?

No, it’s not a spam, but the acronym SPAMI stands for Specially Protected Areas of Mediterranean Importance. SPAMI areas are given a special status because of their ecological, scientific, aesthetic, cultural or educational importance at a regional level. The areas have been identified by the Regional Centre for Protected Areas of the Barcelona Convention. There are 39 such sites in the Mediterranean, with the Landscape Park Strunjan in Slovenia. To showcase the Mediterranean Sea in all its diversity and richness, SPAMI Day is celebrated every year on 15 April.

The SPAMI Day event is organised by Morigenos – Slovenian Marine Mammal Society and Landscape Park Strunjan as part of the SPAMI Day and Marine Education Trail project and the SPAMI LPS, co-funded by UNEP/MAP-SPA/RAC and the Italian Ministry of Environment and Energy Security.
