As a marine environment, the Bay of Island coast is under increasing pressure from competing interests, including aquaculture, fisheries, tourism and recreation. Land-based human activities are also having an impact.
The Bay of Islands survey is the first OS 20/20 survey of a New Zealand coastal area and the largest ever undertaken in our coastal waters to date.
