The Great Bear Sea: A Thriving Marine System Essential for Our Coastal Economy

The Great Bear Sea is one of the most biodiverse and unique places on the planet and a true British Columbian treasure. Unfortunately, its marine abundance has been a magnet for industrial extraction, which has damaged marine habitats and left many species, from ancient sponge glass reefs to salmon, at risk.

The Great Bear Sea and Why It Needs Defending

Learn about the Great Bear Sea, the threats it faces, and how the Great Bear Sea MPA Network can help restore the health of BC’s coast.

The new marine protected area network in BC will serve both an economic and environmental purpose, helping local communities thrive.

Strong Coast is a BC community group working to #DefendOurCoast from threats like bottom trawling, poaching, and overfishing.

We support local fisheries and want to make our coast an economic engine again.

Let’s make the Great Bear Sea Marine Protected Area (MPA) Network a reality.
