our mission

The Black Fish is an international marine conservation organisation on a mission to change attitudes towards our precious oceans and to work towards protecting the unique life within them. Using education, investigation and non-violent direct action, The Black Fish campaigns to end illegal and destructive fishing practices and safeguard a future for the plentiful species in our seas.

Whales, sharks, dolphins, turtles, seals, rays, skates, tuna, swordfish and mackerel are only very few of the plentiful species which roam the oceans in search of food and shelter. This extraordinary biodiversity has in recent years become steadily more threatened by human activity such as damaging industrial fishing operations and illegal hunting practices.

To be able to address the urgency of the situation and work towards better protection of the oceans, we have started a new organisation: The Black Fish. We are on a mission to change attitudes towards our precious oceans and work to protect the unique life within them. We are calling on you to join us and contribute your time, skills and compassion to make sure we can act.
