We have a marine conservation area at Breil Nook just North of Selwick Bay on the Flambrough coast. We plan to survey the area and present the results here.

Some of our members have attended the Seasearch observer course. This helps make the club's efforts meaningful and our findings can be combined with a national project  to produce an overall and detailed picture of the marine habitat around our coast.
