As part of the agreement, PATA officially endorses Reef-World and Green Fins, a management approach to promote and measure compliance to an environmental code of conduct for sustainable diving and snorkelling activities for destinations, dive operators and related ancillary products and services. PATA members will also have access to relevant information that relates specifically to diving, snorkelling and Marine Tourism.
PATA CEO Mario Hardy said, “Concerns are growing about marine tourism conservation issues. We look forward to gaining insights about Reef-World’s monitoring of best practices of the diving and snorkelling tourism industry internationally through Green Fins. This partnership means that PATA members now have improved access to knowledge that can help us make a real difference, at the grassroots level, on a wide range of marine tourism issues.”
“At Reef-World, we strive to ensure simple and practical guidance to environmental best practice for scuba diving and snorkelling activities is freely available to everyone, regardless of business size, location or language spoken. Through this partnership with PATA and using the Green Fins management approach, we will be able to extend the reach of Green Fins to more businesses managers and owners,” said Reef-World Operations Manager James Harvey.
