Book on Algoa Bay
Lloyd Edwards published a book in 2005 entitled "Scenes from Algoa Bay" which is a photographic guide to the whales, dolphins and seabirds of the bay.
Autographed copies of the book are available after a tour or online by emailing Fogarty's or Raggy Charters.
In 2018 Lloyd also contributed content and photographs to a publication produced by the Algoa Bay Branch of WESSA, (Wildlife and Environmental Society of South Africa) : "Know your Bay" A Guide to the Features and Creatures of our Algoa Bay Hope Spot.
The Marine Volunteer project
Marine volunteers from all over the world come to work for the Baywatch Marine Conservation Project in Algoa Bay. Established in 1992, The Baywatch Project aims to educate the community, specifically the youth, about the marine environment and the need for its conservatoin and protection, assist organisations responsible for marine law enforcement and marine research, and undertake our own independent research. This is done through the running of a marine eco-tour company, Raggy Charters, which allows volunteers hands-on experience as a marine guide and also operating and maintaining a boat. Profits from Raggy Charters go directly to The Baywatch Project and the Penguin Research Fund. Click here to read about how The Baywatch Project began.
Raggy Charters and The Baywatch Project bring out a yearly calendar which captures various scenes of whales, dolphins, seals and sea birds of Algoa Bay.
This stunning production is as suited for the home as for the office and makes an ideal corporate as well as a personal gift item.
