2025/2026 LEX-NG Fund Traveler Impact Report

Learn how our curious, impassioned travelers are helping to create a positive future for the planet's people and places

The 2025/2026 Lindblad Expeditions–National Geographic (LEX-NG) Fund Traveler Impact Report details our collective initiatives to protect the planet’s oceans, wildlife and communities. Together with our travelers, we invested $3.03 million to advance marine conservation, climate research, education and community programs worldwide. This marks the highest annual investment made by the LEX-NG Fund since its 2008 inception.

This report showcases the meaningful projects made possible by traveler support and engagement—and the shared commitment driving lasting impact across the globe. Together, Lindblad Expeditions and the National Geographic Society are demonstrating that exploration can both inspire and protect.

If you’re inspired by this work, we invite you to support the LEX-NG Fund and help expand its impact.
