Marine Protected Areas of Outer Hebrides online

There's new way to find out about Marine Protected Areas of the Outer Hebrides online

There's now a fun interactive storymap to help you explore the network of Marine Protected Areas in the Outer Hebrides.

We learned that many people wanted better access to information on Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in the Outer Hebrides as part of the MarPAMM project. This came from community discussions and an online survey (see here for more info).

Through the storymap you can explore MPAs  in the region, learn more about Marine Protected Areas and why we need them and discover the important roles that marine habitats and species play in our everyday lives.

We are developing a special part of the new website as a community virtual story board, where we would like to share what is important to you about the seas around the islands.

Do you have a story that you would like to contribute to the story board which will be developed as part of the “Storymap” website?
