Control and surveillance

MarViva owns a fleet of boats fitted with advanced navigation technology that enables them to work in conjunction with the coastguard and park rangers in control and surveillance activities in Marine Protected Areas to prevent illegal fishing in its waters and allow biodiversity recovery.

The role played by MarViva proves essential in assisting government authorities in enforcing

and preventing infringement of the law in Marine

Protected Areas.
