ABOUT
The unique waters of Plymouth Sound have been instrumental in shaping our city and nation’s heritage, culture, wealth and security. The Plymouth Sound National Marine Park will encourage greater prosperity and engagement with our marine environment.
Building on our current work and existing structures, it will support a new approach to how we value and work in harmony with the natural environment to deliver the greatest benefit for all. Our vision is for a National Marine Park that supports thriving businesses, connected communities and inspired visitors.
The Test and Trial web app has been optimised for mobile phones and will also work on desktop and tablets.
If you are at home, go to Outdoor Adventure and then click on the pins to explore the sample assets, including 360 degree videos by Real Ideas Organisation.
