Canterbury’s Spectacular Coast and Canterbury’s Marine and Coastal Animals are two new (released in 2003) resource books available FREE to all schools and interested community groups in Canterbury.

Book 1 Canterbury’s Spectacular Coast

Discover the unique environments that make up the vast Canterbury coastline. Learn why these environments are so different, why they are important and what threatens them.

Book 2 Canterbury’s Marine and Coastal Animals

Meet the animals that frequent Canterbury’s coastline, where they live, what they eat and what threatens their survival.

These books have been designed to be used in combination but can be used separately. The resources are distributed by Environment Canterbury and were produced in partnership with Environment Canterbury, Department of Conservation, Southern Encounter and Christchurch City Council.
