CUAN BEO will engage in the development of education programmes, the organization of scientific and heritage events and activities with a particular focus on informing the community of the importance of protecting the Galway Bay Marine resource.

CUAN BEO aims to campaign and assist in the restoration (or improvement) of the natural habitat, species, environment and heritage of Galway Bay that is underpinning the economic and social fabric of the district, the recreational amenity it provides and the livelihoods of those who work and live within its catchment.
