Help us protect marine life in the Dornoch Firth by joining us for a citizen science volunteering event!
Join us for a gentle walk along the coast in Tain and learn all about the amazing seagrass meadows in the Dornoch Firth! As we walk along the shoreline, we’ll discuss the important role that seagrass plays in the health of marine ecosystems and how you can help monitor their distribution using the Seagrass Spotter app from Project Seagrass.
All participants under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

Who we are
The Dornoch Environmental Enhancement Project (DEEP) is a partnership between Marine Conservation Society, Glenmorangie Distillery, and Heriot-Watt University that aims to restore 4-million European flat oysters to the Dornoch Firth. Oysters once thrived in the Firth but were wiped out entirely in the 19th century. Restoration of this essential species and habitat is underway, and we want your help to support the enhancement of the Dornoch Firth. Our engagement events for the communities surrounding the Dornoch Firth are a great way to learn about the project and help protect marine life on your doorstep.
