As the largest fishing resort operator in British Columbia, Nootka Marine Adventures has implemented additional policies to minimize the environmental impact on their pristine marine environment. With a land based resort and two floating resorts “we have a vested interest in protecting our natural environment”, says General Manager, Adele Larkin.
Nootka Marine Adventures has been proactive in implementing a number of operational best practices to ensure they meet, and in many cases exceed, environmental requirements including; state of the art tertiary waste and water treatment, solar power, raw food waste and food management, recycling of plastics, the use of environmentally friendly cleaning materials and proactive fuel spill protocols, to name a few.
NMA also ensures that food served to guests is locally sourced and that every effort for coordinated deliveries are used to get product to its three resorts.
To introduce our youth to this incredible natural environment we provide a base for school groups and youth groups to experience the wilderness Nootka Sound has to offer. “We host several school and youth group programs each year, with an emphasis on outdoor activities, wildlife awareness and our environmental impact”.
Additionally, Nootka Marine Adventures has a long history supporting the local salmon enhancement and habitat restoration by raising funds for the Nootka Sound Watershed Society. They host a number of derbies that raise between $30 to $40,000 each year, in addition to securing funds from several private interests. They also recently resigned from the halibut quota program to protect the future of halibut stocks.
