Solway Firth Partnership is an independent charity that works to support a vibrant and sustainable local economy while respecting, protecting and celebrating the distinctive character, heritage and natural features of our marine and coastal area.
We do this by working with people on both sides of the Solway Firth and further afield on a wide range of projects. We also contribute to development of policies for management of the coast and sea. We aim to engage with as many people as possible to help ensure that local views shape the future of the area.
National Marine Plan Interactive (NMPi) is a tool designed by Marine Scotland to assist in the development of national and regional marine planning. NMPi allows you to view different types of information and, where appropriate, links have been provided to the related parts of Scotland’s Marine Atlas and will also be provided to the National Marine Plan in due course.

Our Solway coastline is incredible! Rocks, beaches, fossils, animals, trees, tides, heritage and culture and so much more. There are countless places to explore on both the English and Scottish sides of this unique and every changing firth!
Where will you be exploring next?

Thank you to everyone who came to help at any of the many beach clean events which were held!
With thanks to Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA), Scottish Natural Heritage, O N US South West Scotland, Solway Firth Partnership, and everyone else who helped clean this beach at near Monreith!
Just look at this snapshot of a small part of the litter collected!
Believe it or not there was a lot, lot more

If you want to help us clean up some coast follow the link to sign up as a volunteer!
Please note that the beach we are cleaning is difficult to access and requires walking over coastal rocks and boulders to reach.
