Àros na Mara is a fundamental piece of the tourism/cultural puzzle that when nurtured to its full potential has the opportunity that will fulfill and benefit not only the community of Iona, but all of Cape Breton Island. The economic potential of this ecological resource will assist tremendously in achieving strategic objectives as they relate to cross-cultural tourism, heritage, eco-tourism, ocean literacy, the sharing of marine learning, renewable energy options and science interpretation; while collaborating in research and development partnerships and environmental networking, with private and public sector leadership and investment.
