THE SHANGRILA MARINE SANCTUARY
All in the same breath, Shangrila Marine Sanctuary (SMS) was declared along with Dakit-Dakit Marine Sanctuary via a 1-2 legislative action at the Lapu-Lapu City Sangguniang Panlunsod (City Council) session last Wednesday, December 1, 2006.
The SMS stewardship group members are: Shangri-la's Mactan Island Resort and Spa (represented by Mr. Timothy Wright), Scotty's Sports Action Network and Dive Centre (Mr. Scott Livingston), and Amores Charities Inc. (Doc Amores).
After full buoy delineation of the area, the sanctuary will be closed to the public for approximately 6 months, allowing for some recovery from the unregulated day-to-day human-activities stresses.
SMS promises to be one busy attraction in Mactan, considering the popularity of Shangri-la among the international tropical-tourists and the activity of Scotty's Dive Centre.
