The 2011 Studland Seagrass and Seahorse Project has started at Studland Bay. The project, run by Dorset Wildlife Trust and part-funded by Natural England, aims to raise awareness about the unique ecosytem at Studland Bay, garner support for its designation as a Marine Conservation Zone (MCZ), and gain a better understanding of the use of the bay by its visitors.
Two marine wardens will be visiting local marinas as well as kayaking around Studland Bay talking to boat owners, distributing questionnaires, and promoting the importance of the Voluntary No Anchor Zone (VNAZ).
