AQUA MARINE PARK 2.1 INTRODUCTION

The Aquamarine parkis a park consisting of an area of sea (or lake) sometimes protected for recreational use, but more often set aside to preserve a specific habitat and ensure the ecosystem is sustained for the organisms that exist there.

Although for many uses it is sufficient to designate the boundaries of the marine park and to inform commercialfishing boatsand other maritime enterprises, some parks have gone to additional effort to make their wonders accessible to visitors. These can range fromglass-bottomed boatsand smallsubmarines, to windowed undersea tubes.

The development will provide a space for the local community to come together and connect on multiple levels, there can be a changing spectrum of activities, from the mostcasual and personal moments to group events,family moments and formal group celebrations. 2.2 AIM OF THE PROJECT..

To design an aquapolis for all category of people of all age group and gender by maintaining the natural environment of the aquatic plants and animals. To attract foreign tourists mainly and also promote weekend family tourism from the metropolitan citys. To spread awareness and studies related to oceanography.

2.3 OBJECTIVES..

Such a proposal of this project in India would not only aim at the conservation of marine life but also works towards the development and at the same time reap benefits from foreign exchange by attracting foreign tourists.

India has a vast potential for fishing resources comprising of a long coastline and 30% of the people living on the shore, mans dependence on the sea and the life it nurtures cannot be ignored. It is his own turn to contribute to the symbiotic relationship.

Educating people in this respect and stressing the urgency of conservation would not be better achieved than through entertainment.

Thus proposals like this go a long way in educating people through entertainment to make them realize their responsibilities towards other life forms. 2.4 SCOPE OF THE PROJECT..

India has very few aquatic centers and as such there is a need to boost the same. India has a wide region covered underwater and has coastal areas app. 1/3 of it.

Hence it has a relation with water and marine life since the beginning so it is necessary to create awareness among the people and provide a superficial platform to interact with the aquatic life.

The scope would be to create awareness about marine and aquatic life. It should also help to generate interest and knowledge among students as well as researchers about the aquatic world. It should act as a tourist, recreational and educational center concerning marine life.
