Sydney Coast
Hope Spot
One of the world's great marine destinations is now an internationally recognised Hope Spot. This Mission Blue accreditation ensures the community who live, love and visit the Sydney coastal region are empowered to protect and preserve its environment.
Sydney’s coastal waters are the pride and joy of the region. A dive into the striking blue water will reveal more than 600 species and a thriving ecosystem. As a location that hosts more than 13 million visitors to its beaches every year, we need to preserve and protect this extraordinary marine asset.

Preserving the Treasures of the Sydney Coast

You can explore many of them on this website and spread your own hope for the ocean by joining the many citizen science projects helping ensure a healthy future for Sydney’s marine ecosystem.
