Social Responsibility

Green Marina Program

View of Group of Small Islands from a BoatVan Isle Marina has made a commitment to join the Clean Marine BC program. Clean Marine BC is a collaborative program that provides us with a range of environmentally sound best practices. These tools will help us reduce our environmental impact and improve ecosystem health. We look forward to achieving the best results possible through the program’s eco-rating audit process and flying the Clean Marine BC flag in 2010.
