Over 270 photos have been submitted to the gallery and over 101,713 voted for marine reserves between March 2007 and March 2008 (go to campaign).

Lundy Island, in Devon and Lamlash Bay in Scotland are the UK's only no-take Marine Reserves.

Read about our trip to Lundy Island in July 2007 to observe the monitoring work inside and outside the no-take zone. 

View a two minute video statement by Dr Miles Hoskin who leads the monitoring work at Lundy.

Key scientists recommend that between 30% of UK seas should be protected from all forms of fishing (RCEP report 2004).
