Marine restoration
Sustainable Marine and Coastal Management For Your Project
We are dedicated to revitalising and restoring Scotland’s natural landscapes, both land and marine.
With our OSPREY partners we undertake comprehensive intertidal and subtidal surveys, navigate marine licencing, permits, legislation and permissions, to ensure the restoration of priority marine habitats, including saltmarsh, seagrass meadows, and native oyster beds.
Highlands Rewilding is involved with working groups actively pursuing marine credit verification. This ensures that our marine restoration approach complements future marine natural capital opportunities.

Improved water quality
Protection against environmental pulse events such as flash flooding
Creation of commercial fish and crustacean species nursery grounds
Enhanced fishery stocks
Increased carbon sequestration
Increased biodiversity both terrestrial and marine
Stabilisation of terrestrial land to increase grazing pasture
