Close science to take care of the environment we share.
Xatrac is a non-profit environmental association founded in 2008 and located in Lloret de Mar.
Knowing to love. Love to preserve.
We bring science and the environment closer to people who want to know and participate in the good management of the planet.
We promote critical thinking and curiosity for nature, providing knowledge that allows us to build opinions and values of our own.
An integrative vision of conservation.
