Wishing everyone a great year in 2012.

OceansWatch is gettting into its planning for the next year. One of our main projects this year will be at the Reef Islands, Solomon Islands. Building on our visits in 2010 and 2011 OceansWatch will work with the communities of the Reef Islands, the Temotu Fisheries department and Temotu Provincial government to create an approximately 30,000ha Marine Managed Area (MMA) which shall incorporate a network of 5-10 community no-take Marine Protected Areas(MPAs).
