The objective of the project is to move towards “experience tourism”, which highlights the islands’ identity and culture. To meet the needs of an evolving tourism market, the project offers dive tours as well as new and unique virtual and augmented reality diving experiences. Through these new activities, the project seeks to drive local development by enhancing skills in ecology, environmental awareness, and the protection of sensitive coastal and marine areas. It aims to balance management of marine resources and the natural environment by strengthening connections between environmental protection, cultural identity and heritage, and developing sustainable tourism.
