British marine and coastal SACs in the English Channel

British Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) in the English Channel JNCC collate information on SACs with marine components on behalf of the Country Nature Conservation Bodies (CNCBs) to create a dataset of inshore and offshore sites across the UK – adapted here to the English Channel Area (FISH INTEL project study area). This layer contains only the SACs that protect marine components and includes inshore and offshore sites. Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) with "marine components" protect habitat and/or species associated with the marine environment. Last updated May 2020.
