Will the MMP affect me? Will the MMP change how I use the Marine Environment?

There are many groups, individuals and organisations who use the MPA in different ways. St. Helena’s Marine Protected Area is a special place which aims to balance the conservation of the marine environment, its ecosystems with the range of values it provides that are important to the community of St. Helena. Values such as recreational and commercial uses, research, education, public appreciation and enjoyment and local Island culture.
