Comprehensive advice to Government & the leisure industry on conservation of marine and coastal resources, especially in the Caribbean, Indo-Pacific, Red-Sea, West Africa and the Mediterranean.

Our staff specialise in Marine Resource Assessment, especially of coral reefs, mangrove and associated wetland habitats, in underwater photography and in recommendations on how fisheries and wildlife resources can be conserved in areas subject to increased pressures from leisure & tourism.

Our staff are trained to carry out brief and highly cost-effective "site appraisals" to advise clients at an early stage in the planning process which sites for potential development are to be preferred on environmental grounds, and what resources require special protection. This work protects clients against purchase of sites where subsequent development might result in planning difficulties or exposure of the clients, their bankers or investors to financial liability for environmental damage.
