More than
a name.
Two South Atlantic oceanic protected areas whose nutrient-rich waters, reefs, tidal pools and islands provide breeding and feeding habitat for dolphins, turtles, sharks, tuna and seabirds. The paired property shows how isolated oceanic islands and the South Atlantic’s only atoll can act as concentrated habitat within a much larger open-ocean system.
