The North Devon Marine Project
inspiring change
Ocean Literacy
We are supporting #thinkocean, the Ocean Conservation Trusts' campaign to create thinking about our impact on the Ocean throughout the day, and making choices with the Ocean in mind.
If more people Think Ocean, we can kick-start a wave of action that will protect our planet’s future.
The North Devon UNESCO Biosphere Reserve
Based a few miles from Ilfracombe, we are proud to have partnered with the North Devon UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. From the highlands of Dartmoor and Exmoor, down the river valleys to the sea and beyond Lundy, the North Devon Biosphere is one of 668 Reserves in 122 countries designated by UNESCO's Man and the Biosphere Programme and was the first of 6 to be designated in the UK.
The designation secures a better future by linking people and nature today. The waters that lie within the reserve is the focus area for our research and development program for net zero maritime.

Sailing from bases in Plymouth, Falmouth and North Devon, we are ocean advocates, researching and testing, sharing our findings and keeping watch. Through events and demonstrations we are encouraging the shift towards a more sustainable environment on land and at sea.
The electric revolution

Sailing the South West and Bristol Channel, we provide real world insight for operators to take that vital step towards net zero. Working alongside our partners for clean power and propulsion, we are demonstrating new engineering, reducing impact in boating on all vessel types.
