Fiji Shark Conservation and Awareness Project New signs ready to be distributed to all supporting marinas, resorts and fishing boats in Fiji. Funding was provided by Project AWARE! The dock signs are printed and laminated on 0.080 Marine Grade aluminum to ensure resistance against the elements. The Shark-Free Marina Initiative has a singular purpose, to reduce wor......ldwide shark mortality. We encourage shark conservation at sport fishing and resort marinas by prohibiting the landing of any shark at the participating marina. The SFMI works with marinas, fishermen and like minded non-profit groups to form community conscious policy and increase awareness of the need to protect our sharks, our ocean and our legacy.
