Ports, harbours & marinas

We provide environmental survey and ecological advice for coastal construction projects in ports, harbours and marinas throughout the UK and Europe.

We are experienced operators with expert legislative understanding

The projects we support range from major developments in Europe’s largest ports to the building of small, independently operated jetties. These services can also be applied to marinas and harbours.

Our work often involves designing and undertaking environmental baseline surveys and habitat assessments and marine licence support for maintenance and capital dredge projects. We can facilitate all sampling, analysis and reporting requirements to facilitate your marine licence application and ensure that activities are conducted sustainably and in compliance with environmental legislation.

We have an in-depth understanding of relevant conservation legislation which provides peace of mind to our clients given the high level of protection afforded to the coastal and estuarine areas where sites are usually located.
