Spatially, the Study covers the Natura 2000 area of Pakleni Islands (HR3000095) and the land that is protected under the national category of significant landscape. The designation of marine protected area aims to protect and restore natural habitats, increase fish stocks, and preserve biodiversity, which is our greatest natural wealth.

The program, focused on the Mediterranean endemic seagrass Posidonia oceanica and the benefits of no-fishing zones, is intended for upper-grade elementary school children.
These activities are implemented within the project ” Pakleni Islands marine protected area” by the Public Institution Sea and Karst, funded by the Mediterranean Protected Areas Network – MedPAN and the Peter Bertarelli Foundation.
