Loch Broom is a sea loch in northwestern Ross and Cromarty; Ullapool sits on its eastern shore. In news, Scotland’s MPAs show recovery as protections expand, marking seagrass habitats with special buoys and no-anchor zones.
Conservation groups say Scotland’s marine protected areas are recovering when properly shielded from dredging and trawling. The Wester Ross MPA has shown early signs of life returning after illegal disturbance, while groups press for faster, broader protections across inshore waters.
