Projects

At the core of everything we do, there's a spirit of learning and sharing.

Explore our groundbreaking projects focused on grey seal conservation and marine habitats in Torbay and beyond. From seal monitoring research to habitat restoration initiatives, our efforts aim to protect South Devon’s marine biodiversity and ensure a sustainable future for these vital ecosystems.

'Discovering the Cove' Education Initiative

We have partnered with numerous primary schools in Brixham and the Devon Environment Foundation, to introduce an innovative school’s programme including the creation of a conservation garden at one of the school's to create a safe space away from the hustle of the playground.

We are regularly introducing the local children to our amazing coastal habitats through a series of presentations, workshops and field trips and developing a habitat/wildlife awareness campaign to reach the wider community.

This is an ongoing project which we aim to replicate with other schools throughout South Devon.

iNaturalistUK - The Cove Discovery Project - Observations

We log all observations of land and marine animal species in the cove and share our data for the benefit of all. We are keen for you to share your observations (with images, location and date) and help us build a 'pattern of life' for the cove's wildlife. Please free to get in touch here to learn more.
iNaturalistUK is co-ordinated by the National Biodiversity Network Trust with the support of the Marine Biological Association and the Biological Record Centre.
