This month, you can win one of five sets of double tickets to the Two Oceans Aquarium by answering one simple question about the Southern African Sustainable Seafood Initiative(SASSI).

The world’s oceans are in crisis, and so is seafood. Many of our fisheries are in deep trouble – there are simply not enough fish left in the oceans to keep everyone in business. You, the consumer, can make a huge difference to our ocean resources by choosing to eat seafood that is still plentiful and can cope with today’s fishing pressures.

Shoreline Café is the first restaurant in Africa to be awarded chain-of-custody certification from the Marine Stewardship Council. Read more about this prestigious certification here.

About SASSI

SASSI has compiled a green, orange and red colour-coded system to help you make a well-informed and sustainable choice when buying seafood. Try to choose ‘’green’’ seafood species as often as possible because there are still plenty of them and they can cope with today’s fishing pressures. Green species include yellowtail, calamari, hake and black mussels.
