Get Involved

There are many simple things you can do to help protect our unique and diverse marine environment.

1. Keep informed

Sign up to our weekly e-bulletin that brings you relevant information and an opportunity to get involved in events, projects and news about marine conservation in Tasmania.

2. Spread the word

You can put up posters, distribute brochures and stickers, or give a ready-to-go presentation to your local group or school, with the help of our resources. Contact us for materials. Or, if there’s a special place you’d like to get protected, check our Fact Sheets for tips on how you can do this

3. Have your say

The government will be creating more marine national parks in Tasmania and around Australia, and you can contribute your knowledge and show your support. In Tasmania, the Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment also reviews management arrangements for fisheries regularly, so have your say. Check theTasmanian Government website and the Australian Government website for more information.

Only take a feed

If you love to drop a line in, only take what you need for a feed and use theTasmanian Recreational Sea Fishing Guide to make sure the fish are legal size. In many cases, recreational bag limits are in excess of what you’ll need, so just use your common sense.

5. Support our work

Our ongoing work relies upon people who care about our oceans and coast just like you. You can make a tax deductible donation to our marine conservation work in Tasmania to Environment Tasmania here
