Special buoys are being introduced to mark sensitive seagrass habitats, according to reports from BBC Sport and BBC Science. The initiative uses buoy systems to make locations easier to identify for sea users and helps reduce damage that can be caused by anchors and other seabed disturbances. Alongside the buoys, voluntary “no-anchor” zones are being promoted around the identified habitat areas. The approach aims to protect seagrass, which is considered important for marine ecosystems. By clearly marking where seagrass grows and encouraging vessels to avoid anchoring in those spots, the measures seek to limit physical impacts on the seabed. The sources describe the buoys and no-anchor guidance as complementary steps: buoys provide visible location information, while voluntary restrictions rely on cooperation from boaters and other users. The reports do not specify the broader policy context or enforcement details, but they consistently describe the same combination of marker buoys and voluntary no-anchor areas for seagrass protection.
