There are lots of things that you can do to help coastal dolphins (and create better coastlines for us all). Dr. Hawkins suggests an easy place to start is by choosing environmentally friendly cleaning products, which reduces harmful pollutants in the sea. Here’s a few more things you can do: If you choose to eat sea life, choose wisely – buy only from sustainable fisheries and know how and where your fish was caughtSupport marine protected areas – proven to create safe havens for all sorts of animals, these sanctuaries create more resilient ecosystemsKeep the ocean clean – avoid single use plastics and support legislation that leads to cleaner coasts and seas @angelgrimaldiphotography  We’re a saltwater nation, surrounded by an ocean playground which we share with some seriously amazing creatures. So whether it’s the surfing Bottlenose dolphins of Byron Bay or the unique Burrunan Dolphin, by better understanding our neighbours and our impacts on them, we can all be better custodians for our coastlines.   Feature photo by @angelgrimaldiphotography
