The Shark-Free Marina Initiative has a singular purpose, to reduce worldwide shark mortality. They encourage shark conservation at sport fishing and resort marinas by prohibiting the landing of any shark at the participating marina.
It is their goal to work with, not against, the recreational and commercial fishing community.
With this initiative, fisherman will no longer be allowed to bring sharks into a Shark-Free Marina for any photographic or trophy display purposes or for any cleaning or processing of the shark for fins, meat, jaws, or any other by-product.
Participating marinas will encourage those fishermen who are determined to fish for sharks to exercise safe catch-and-release techniques.
